I can’t believe this guy published first. Now all my work on this will have been for nothing.

This is so far beyond me...

On page 83, about halfway down, he misstated an exponent. Complete fail.

Big deal. My cat Mr. Whiskers solved the Landau-Siegel zeros conjecture problem years ago. He just got too busy chasing his tail to publish it.

“may have proposed”

Shouldn’t the writer have determined that before writing the article? What a retard.

Whatever numbers with exponents.

Subtract the number 1

Suddenly it is indivisible, and there is justice for all

Now I can get some rest. I was awake all night trying to figure it out.

… an infinite number of primes that differ by 2.
++++
Well they have to be odd so they can’t differ by 1. The same argument says they can’t differ by 3. Clearly that applies to 5, 7, 9, 11 … as well.

But there are a lot of primes. An infinite number I believe. So differing by 2 would seem to be relatively common at least as primes go. Seems likely there are an infinite number of them.

My more simple “proof”. 😎

OK, what does this mean IRL, the advancement of crypto keys or in decoding?

OK fine, but can he complete a Rubic’s cube in under 5 minutes?

Wasn’t this a episode on Netflix?

The problem with 111 page proofs, is how do you prove the proof is correct?

a very long proof, 111 pages

Sum Ting Wong. Never seen a proof that long.

See “Uncle Petrose and the Goldbach Conjecture”

The Goldbach Conjecture states that every even natural number greater than 2 is the sum of two primes.

Now prove it and collect your Nobel
