@littmath @GaryMarcus @typingloudly Pretty sure the first one well known. Just last week it came up in a discussion about weather patterns. Haven’t looked through the rest yet but I suspect we’re looking at a list of fairly popular numbers here.

@littmath @typingloudly i just replied elsewhere.

rare prime means one referred to less often (perhaps never) in the corpus.

Wondering — do you understand what out of distribution actually means? It means rarely (or never) used in the corpus, and (by some metric) no similar to what was used.

@GaryMarcus @typingloudly Sorry, can you make your point explicitly? I have no idea what a “rare” prime is supposed to be and I’m a number theorist.

@littmath @typingloudly one that is rarely discussed in the corpus.

thus precisely on point.

The statement is lighthearted and seems to be engaging in a humorous exchange about the nature of the numbers listed, possibly referring to their obscurity or uniqueness. It does not engage in public discourse as it lacks substantive engagement with public issues or societal concerns.
