Make this your episode of personal growth for 2024

But what is the point of making this assumption explicit? Why don’t you just let the code assume it implicitly? Or is this just meant to make the code easier to follow for someone reading it?

You know, that argument also works in the other direction 😅

What is the upside to assume y=9 over just hardcoding y=9?
December 6, 2024 at 6:27 AM
Well, yes and no. The hope is that you might somehow use the algebraic structure of the field to show something

Why not try to write a proof instead?

hey, it’s getting pretty spammy now on my timeline and I’ve yet to find a good way to mute these posts 😅. i’d be sad if the first person I had to block here were a fellow cryptographer

The subject line is also FUBAR, I had to keep myself from bursting into spontaneous laughter in the TCC session on mathematical foundations of cryptography I’m sitting in

I think it was? Although I can no longer see it, because I’ve been blocked for pointing this out. If you’re not careful, you’ll be next 🤣
