%N Positions of weak descents in the sequence of differences between primes.

%C Partial sums of A333253.

%F Numbers k such that prime(k+2) - 2*prime(k+1) + prime(k) >= 0.

%e The prime gaps split into the following strictly increasing subsequences: (1,2), (2,4), (2,4), (2,4,6), (2,6), (4), (2,4,6), (6), (2,6), (4), (2,6), (4,6,8), (4), (2,4), (2,4,14), ...
