and Big O

It's asymptotic. Slower O doesn't mean faster program.

[–] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 3 points 1 day ago

wat.

When I say Big O, I'm talking about the slick jazzy anime about rejecting true love and living with heartbreak because we believe a lie about our own superiority. This is always true, no matter what the discussion context. If I happen to say anything remotely relevant to mathematical Big O, that is just a deeply weird coincidence.

Oh! You meant Moore's Law is asymptotic!?

Yes! That is key to the joke I was making.
