You don't have to use median of medians for every pass, you can use it only when you detect that each pass is not making enough progress, i.e. when you hit the worst case.

That only seems to change how the query is performed, not which kind of data can be returned. For example how would you use it to return a list of events and, for each event, the list of attendees in that event?

You don't need randomized pivoting for this, there are deterministic ones like median of median that will also result in a O(nlogn) worst case. Also note that with a randomized pivoting you _might_ hit a O(n^2) worst case, it's ju

If you feed data to a LLM then there will always be a prompt injection. What you described is limiting the damage that the prompt injection can do, but also its usefulness.

Density is not the correct measure here because empty land decreases density but doesn't need to be covered. What matters is how much the population is clustered.

It has a Rust-like syntax, enums, matching, traits, etc etc. Yes, it also loses a lot of special characteristics of Rust, but it has to be different somewhere. Moreover a lot of people like Rust as a high level language, i.e. ignoring the l

If you are into constructive logic then this will only work for proving negative statements (where indeed the definition is the same as what a proof by contradiction would give you). For positive statements you won't get back a direct

My understanding is that the "logical bits" view breaks down for unions, because the nth logical bit could be at different offsets depending on the union variant that's considered active.

Do you need a blockchain for that though? There are cryptography schemes to share a secret (e.g. the recovery keys) between multiple parties, requiring at least N of them to get together to recover the original value of the secret.

You're trying to justify SpaceX's valuation using Starlink, but it's clear from the S-1 that it makes up only for ~5% of SpaceX estimated TAM.
