WOW that's the reason? I didn't catch that, that's both hilarious and disheartening. Dijkstra is rolling in his grave... I suppose we'll have to move from "nodes and edges" to, idk, "dots and lines", kinda like TikTok has created "unalive"?

  Can't wait to see what the almighty AI thinks about the Tits problem![1] Or the Tits group[2] (I swear, I'm not a member!). Very tempted to include Tits Alternative[3] as one of my interests on LinkedIn, but I'm afraid the result will be too predictable. Side note: The two groups that don't satisfy the Tits Alternative are very dear to my heart. Writing software to do computation in Thompson's Group and its generalizations[4] was my introduction to geometric group theory. And I ended up with Grigorchuk as my graduate advisor after learning about the Grigorchuk group.

    Or copper nanotubes. The classic nanotubes are made from carbon (C), called CNTs. The copper (Cu) are called CuNTs. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11433-013-5387-8 https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11433-013-5387-8

      Or the lazy/eager divide in theoretical computer science: it's difficult to study without a close investigation of topless models' bottoms.

  Or how main branch has replaced master branch. Despite “mastering” and “master recordings” still being a thing in audio. All these DAW companies insisting on devs using main branch despite having “mastering” plugins in their actual product.

Primitive filters. You'd expect LinkedIn to do better than that. Seems like a classic Scunthorpe Problem. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scunthorpe_problem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scunthorpe_problem
