While that works for "news agencies" it's a free money glitch when used in a customer support role for the consumer.

Edit: clarification

The system works great all year round but what it delivers is not electricity...

The absence of coincidence

Look up the strong law of small numbers.

Also, one of their examples of AI was an exhaustive search.

Sleep sort is kind of like count sort but with added overhead. Both have a complexity of O(n+m) with n being the length and m the value of the max element.

The optimum of O(n * log n) is based on the assumption that the only information about the values is obtained by comparison. If you operate on integer keys I would recommend radix sort. It has a complexity of O(n * w) where w is the length (read logarithm) of the key.

I can't find the name/source at the moment, but if you enumerate all turing machines and run them concurrently* you will find the optimal algorithm for your problem in O(1) and executed that.
To my knowledge the algorithm is so inefficient on small input that it takes hours to solve integer addition.

* You run the first turing machine one step, than the first two one additional step, that the first tree... This allows you to run an unlimited amount of TMs an unlimited amount of steps.

The spec is open source, particular implementation are typically under patent/copyright protection.
Not that they can be enforced effectively, unless the chips are exported into the US.

Look at me, I have a friend at bell labs.
We had to use vacuum tubes, and we liked it.

The main difference is that WASM is an agnostic bytecode without a gc while the jvm is opinionated in a java way. It has a gc, focus on dynamic dispatch and it has knowledge of concepts like exceptions, classes and visibility.

All this leaking of abstractions means languages like java and kotlin are well suited, scala has hit problems and c couldn't be compiled to java bytecode.

It all comes from OP.

Actual assembly in mainstream use:
x86
arm
risc v

mainstream byte code:
jvm
.net (I think)
wasm

fake assembly people may write:
llvm
wasm

wat (web assembly text) is actually written is S-expressions, like lisp but without code as data.

Edit: formatting

The tidal forces would probably tear apart the moon into rings, the best place to watch would be a higher orbit.

~~I don't know,~~ but you can check individual instances by going to the /instances subdomain and searching for threads.

shjw and blahaj are defederated, world isn't.
This can always change, but I have confidence in my admins.
