"The 'bit-level magic' here is misleading. They're using integer representations and calling them bits. A true bit-level approach would encode positions as pure binary streams. For example, their promotion string '00000034' is 8 bytes (64 bits), not the claimed 9 bits. Has anyone implemented this with actual bitwise operations instead of integer packing?
TLDR: You stupi...lovely folks, need learn what a bit is. What is a byte, and why integers are NOT BITS.
And no one called this post out from years ago? Crazy.
Someone ask, and I will show you how to do it in 24 BYTES IN BINARY ENCODING FOR REAL - no fake "integers are bits". And can we use compression techniques? We can get this to 10-12 bytes maybe.
So it beats the fake "26 bytes" and my version is actually real binary bits.
