Hi SideQuark. I'm writing you here as there's no contact email on your profile--I wanted to ask you if you ever tried a SAT solver on RomuTrio to find cycles (or you can give me so…

All the images you are seeing were generated without any human intervention—it's just two AIs talking to each other.

Note that some smart people in Karlsruhe developed a highly parallel construction procedure for RecSplit, so now you can build large low-space maps very quickly. https://arxiv.org/…

That stuff is implemented in Java by the Sux4J project ( https://sux4j.di.unimi.it/ ). Happy to see this is getting into mainstream (I am the proud inventor of the name "static fun…

Ha ha it's fun to be defined "a professor from Italy". Probably for most people in this community I'm the designer of the JavaScript PRNG (V8, Node.js, Chrome, Firefox, etc.) or th…

Melissa O'Neill's PCG generators are LCGs/MCGs with power-of-two moduli over which some scrambling is applied. The author has claimed that while not fully cryptographic PRNGs, pred…

There's a complete theory based on primitive polynomials on Z/2Z. Check any article on linear PRNGs for references. "Experimentally" will work only with ridiculously small state sp…

I don't how this project ended up here in this moment, but as one of the authors let me answer the main questions. 1) The name is just a coincidence. I learned originally about ind…

It's just a matter of misconfigured terminal databases. I wrote some years ago a Linux Mini-HOWTO about it, I wonder where it is now...

Nah, come on, ne is obviously better! :-P
