Inpher (https://www.inpher.io/ https://www.inpher.io/) | New York (USA), Lausanne (Switzerland), Paris (France) | Software Engineers | Full-time | Onsite At Inpher, we believe that privacy and security are foundational to the future of computing and have built enterprise products to make this vision a reality. We are a small team of veteran founders, world-renowned cryptographers and proven software engineers. We are headquartered in New York City, with satellite offices in San Francisco and Lausanne, Switzerland, and have raised $14M in funding. Apply at https://www.inpher.io/careers https://www.inpher.io/careers Or email to me directly at $user@inpher.io, where each ascii character of $user can be obtained by solving for x and converting to base-128, x = 145767 mod 611939, x = 109572 mod 598463

srosenberg: you've really caught my attention here. I'm likely unqualified for the job, but I would appreciate any feedback on my approach. WolframAlpha says ChineseRemainder[{145767, 109572}, {611939, 598463}] is 243085550 So as a golang newbie, and someone who's interested in efficient representation of strings, I tried this: package main import ( "bytes" "encoding/binary" "fmt" ) import "go.chromium.org/luci/common/data/base128" func main() { var num1 uint64 = 243085550 buf := new(bytes.Buffer) err := binary.Write(buf, binary.LittleEndian, num1) if err != nil { fmt.Println("binary.Write failed on num1:", err) } string1 := base128.EncodeToString(buf.Bytes()) fmt.Printf("% s\n", string1) } Output is wL?p????? and of course, wLp@inpher.io bounced back. So any feedback would appreciated in the interest of learning. I also tried this: package main import ( "fmt" "ekyu.moe/leb128" ) func main() { fmt.Printf("%x\n", leb128.AppendUleb128(nil, 243085550)) }
