Sorry, I forgot to add the /s.

But thank you for the calculations, it's actually interesting :) I was thinking about that myself, but didn't bother to do the math.

I thought its reminiscent of cryptomining as it also consist of guessing an arbitrary number just for fun.

    Internet sarcasm is hard, and lemmy has a very general audience :) I'm always happy when someone gives me an excuse to do the math I was already curious about - it's often not worth it, for just my own curiosity, but even a sarcastic or disingenuous prompt reminds me that there's other casually curious people out there.
