gollark: Oh no.
gollark: This isn't very useful. Sorting is generally quite fast.
gollark: Maybe you could use a computationally hard problem like prime factoring somehow.
gollark: It would probably take significant effort to actually construct something satisfying this.
gollark: I think Dan wants incomprehensible to mortals but the answer is exactly 1.
