We also need a McDonald’s emoji, Pepsi emoji, Windows emoji and Mastercard emoji. These are also brands that are heavily ingrained in our culture. Probably even more so than Bitcoin.

Or we accept that brands like Bitcoin shouldn’t use emoji as a marketing tool.

It’s especially impressive when the indie game developer themselves make the bangers.

Usually the most straightforward solution is good enough. And when you want to improve the performance, it’s rarely about time complexity.

There’s no evidence of the contrary either.

Or just test the damn thing before shipping it to customers. That’s standard practice in the software industry.

If they had just installed it on one of their own Windows machines, none of this would’ve happened.

Risks are normally outside the reasonable control of the company. For example, sales not hitting the target. They can’t just press a button and up goes the sales.

This was entirely within the company’s control. That risk shouldn’t ever be there at all. They could’ve avoided the entire situation if they chose not to ship the faulty software.

I’m more concerned about that poor stack with all those recursions.

It’s also ~~O(n^2)~~ O(n!). I’m not sure what they’re trying to do, but I’m sure it can be done in O(n) (or at least polynomial).

Reject.

In Java it’s quite difficult to forget semicolon and still have a syntactically correct program.

I think braces are incredibly important. With Python it can be confusing which indentation is correct when copying code between files. Different indentations can easily be still syntactically correct, but the outcome is vastly different. It’s often I have to double and triple check to verify I copied the code with correct indentation.
