For those who don't understand prefixes, if you want to try your luck, this is the best current option for puzzle 71. If you're not interested in searching the entire range, where random + sequential and prefixes are equal in terms of statistical significance, you're just trying your luck, which means you don't need to scan the entire range. You get better results by using prefixes, which have huge advantages.

Have you not learned anything from what fixedpaul and others tried to show you regarding your most fatal fallacy? You're comparing both walks in the same order, however you're only attaching the "random +" to the sequential version, for reasons only you understand, even though they both walk the exact same sequence of data. If you simply start off the sequential from 1 instead of 0, prefix loses in 99.999999% of the cases, but of course this is not allowed, since you gotta keep your obvious bias to perform well for total n00bz.

If you have a well-formulated mathematical position that dismisses this idea as anything more than a half-baked theory, you can comment directly on the thread I shared, something you apparently avoid doing at all costs because you know that in the technical area it is not allowed to share false information, and generally there are the most knowledgeable, where beyond your theoretical statements they verify the facts.

Nah, I prefer to do what those experts you mentioned (the ones that read in there) actually do:

Ignore it so it gets buried, and preferring not to bother at all, since they have actual better things to do.

Besides, it's not like you can't delete what you don't like, so my patience has a limit in that regard as well.
