based on barely understanding anything in this thread I'm gonna say that P obviously = NP

b/c all you would have to do to prove it is find a polynomial time algorithm, no matter how slow or lovely, for any problem in NP, and lots of smart people have been trying to do that for decades while getting nowhere. also P != NP is the intuitive answer. i mean if you think about the problems involved it's pretty obvious there are no easy solutions for them. i have no idea how anyone could think P = NP tbh

wow, they've been trying for decades? that's, like, forever for something as smart as a human being.
