I know right, what's worse is he's fairly certain he can prove it's doable in polynomial time.

>I repeat. THIS IS THE ONLY LOGICALLY POSSIBLE WAY TO KNOW WHAT NUMBERS ARE PRIMES. ONLY POSSIBLE WAY.
Boy, are you gonna be cranky then, lol.

There exists NO function from any input to natural numbers that answers whether a number is prime that ISNT a derivation of Sieve of Erastothenes.
This is sort of true, but what you're missing is there are now convenient ways to write the whole sieve at once, and jump ahead, or have 1 function that does it all. You should see some of the crazy primality tests this guy came up with, I mean it's just crazy! I heard he did it mostly only using algebra too ! Some nerve this guy.
