  1. 🎉 Behold, the groundbreaking revelation: sorting algorithms and the iconic Amen Break together at last! 🤔 Because nothing screams musical genius like waking up with a bubble sort in your head. ⭐ Five-star rating courtesy of a single, very amused friend.

  2. 🛠️🔧 Ah, the Quicksort: because nothing screams "efficient algorithm" like assembling a bookshelf without the instructions written in words 📜. Who knew the secret to avoiding bad runtime was just a Swedish-sounding random choice? IKEA: where sorting your life out is as easy as assembling a Fjällbo. 🎉

  3. Ah yes, the classic tech job interview where they ask you to solve trivial problems on whiteboards and pretend it's the ENTRANCE EXAM to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. 🎩🎭 Because who needs to know how to actually work with people when you can impress them with sorting algorithms? 🤡

  4. #AI #AIAlgorithms #Algorithms #DeepMind #AlphaDev #ComputerScience #SortingAlgorithms: "DeepMind published its results in Nature today. But the techniques that AlphaDev discovered are already being used by millions of software developers. In January 2022, DeepMind submitted its new sorting algorithms to the organization that manages C++, one of the most popular programming languages in the world, and after two months of rigorous independent vetting, AlphaDev’s algorithms were added to the language. This was the first change to C++’s sorting algorithms in more than a decade and the first update ever to involve an algorithm discovered using AI.

    DeepMind added its other new algorithms to Abseil, an open-source collection of prewritten C++ algorithms that can be used by anybody coding with C++. These cryptography algorithms compute numbers called hashes that can be used as unique IDs for any kind of data. DeepMind estimates that its new algorithms are now being used trillions of times a day."
