@d_rift i'm not terribly sure if it's "slower" to iterate over large primes and require q = 2p + 1 vs something like (q - 1)/2 because you'd be somewhat trading off the number of iterations for the slightly smaller prime with iterations for the slightly larger prime

Psst, psst, not too far from here there are people losing not only their right to choose their own future: they're losing their right to live.

Don't you have some solidarity left for them? Or are you too afraid of Donny and Bibi?

@d_rift well sure but i was thinking p >= (q - 1)/2 or at worst p >= sqrt(q) would be appropriate as opposed to DEMANDING 2p + 1

@Em0nM4stodon My work? I would be mildly inconvenienced as currently the github action workers are better than the other runners at my disposal, but this would be balanced by the opportunities to make fun of all colleague who went Microsoft 365 "but they promised data was hosted on a datacentre in the country".

Our institute @ethz.ch hosts local instances of gitlab, nextcloud, matrix, etc. that I actively use as redundancy (git) or primary storage (docs).
