julianschiavo is live-tracking the community joke project where @0xdoug supposedly approaches linear-time integer multiplication, announcing a new milestone of 2^(-15) (previously 2^(-34)) and recalculating the "ETA" with mock-serious data analysis — first missing the 12:44am target, now predicting 6:44pm. The O(n) limit was removed "by popular demand."
