If we design a really absurd but super flexible data structure for linking people and their relationships, and if the algorithm to traverse the tree is necessarily of poor performance, can we call it a Big-O Tree?

For those of you that know I spend a lot of time trying to deal with the Robocall Robotext issues this doument fro the FCC is actually inportant. It postulates mandating Rich Call Data across the US real time communications network. docs.fcc.gov/public/attachmeā€¦

Sometimes I have heinously awful ideas that I just can't get rid of without committing them to a visual. Anyway, this is one of those.

This year and going into next, I'd like to up my Reddit trolling. To elevate it, if you will. By starting some sort of subreddit for discussion of elevator safety in a paranormal context, like if elevator urban legends are true. Do elevators sacrifice passengers randomly?

Why is the file finder dialog on Mac so horrifically bad? There's no "go to parent directory" option. Even just navigating to my home folder is difficult. The "recents" menu seems to only include a small fraction of files perhaps from a few apps that opt in. It's insane.

Why is the amount and state of gold reserves in Fort Knox suddenly interesting to people? What are they using this to distract from?

My TikTok prediction: The US Supreme Court ends up granting a brief administrative stay while they pretend to contemplate the merits. Just to give time for the new US administration to signal there won't be enforcement while they figure out how to undo the legislation.

I did not guess the current administration would flinch this early.
"Our position on this has been clear: TikTok should continue to operate under American ownership. Given the timing of when it goes into effect over a holiday weekend a day before inauguration, it will be up to the next administration to implement," a White House official told ABC News in a statement.
