Thanks! I’m a big precode horror fan and I’ve managed to get a lot of low grade stuff, thankfully!

Attended The Cunning Little Vixen at The Dallas Opera — a Czech opera written by Leoš Janáček over 100 years ago and rarely performed. His score is cinematic and luxurious. This production was completely magical with tones of sexy silent and precode era films. We do have some pedigree here in TX.

When I started, about 10 years ago (not comic collecting, I mean precode horror collecting) I found myself inordinately pleased to own some books I’d used to ogle in the Overstreet Price Guide when I was 10. Sometimes it still feels a bit unreal.

Fast Linear Codes over Large Fields: Addition-Only and Small-Coefficient Encoders (Stanislav Peceny, Peter Rindal) ia.cr/2026/2316
Abstract. We construct fast linear codes over large fields using addition-only encoders and variants with small integer coefficients. A local precode is followed by rounds of a random permutation and a scan, a linear recurrence with a short feedback window. At dimension 2²⁰, rate 1/2, and p = 2¹²⁸ − 159, two plain accumulators (unweighted prefix sums) give relative distance above 11.7%, except with probability below 2^(−49.64) over the sampling of the encoder. A binary subset-sum precode instead gives distance above 12.56%, except with probability below 2^(−22.05). These addition-only encoders use fewer than 6.8125n and 3.3125n field additions, respectively, for output length n. Both exceed the binary rate-1/2 Gilbert–Varshamov benchmark. The proof counts the supports and ranks of the zero equations a codeword must satisfy, retaining the dependence between cancellations. Coefficient size and scan width extend the tradeoff. On one core, with a common implementation and setup failure below 2⁻⁴⁰, encoding time ranges from 12.171 ms at proved distance above 11.7% to 32.342 ms above 42.987%. A coefficient-independent upper bound limits every encoder with two width-one scans after the Newton precode to 39.6855%. The distance and setup-failure bounds hold over 𝔽_(p) and every finite extension, covering all nonzero messages after setup. Timings are for 𝔽_(p). Extension preserves distance exactly because the encoder coefficients lie in the prime subfield. Changing characteristic requires a separate argument; we give field-transfer results in both directions, including counterexamples. Image showing part 2 of abstract.
