Awesome! I wish Kevlin to come to Ukraine with one of his brilliant talks like this one! Would you consider taking part in Devoxx Ukraine 2019, please?
yeah, it's linear in the value of the numbers - but that is exponential in the length of the representation - which is what counts. Otherwise, prime-factorization would be linear, also.
Loved the talk, but sleep sort. It made me think, then I realized it is not O(n). It is O(n²). It must start all of the sleeps before any sleep ends, that is, in less than time 1. Therefore the time of a sleep 1 is determined by n. Therefore sleep n sleeps for a time t, where t ∝ n².
I see what you're getting at, but you could decrement the sleep end time every second to target say 10s in the future for 0, 15 for 1, 20 for 2. That allows you to schedule many more sleeps and having a delay for 0 directly addresses the issue that sleep 1 may be much less than 1 second.
Definition of "Kata" a Japanese term for "Style" and the fact that there are 400 proofs for Pythagoras - I'm 14 minutes in and I don't think I've wasted my time yet
I came from some documentation for a state management library which included a dig at Donald Trump to this video which makes a similar dig. Perhaps it's just confirmation bias, but it seems like these digs are part of half of every presentation on software in the last few years. All the presenters just assume their audience all hate Trump, as if there were anything about coding which would promote it. I have a hard time imagining that (even if I did hate Trump) I would see these jokes as anything but lazy. I stop reading/listening at that point. It's just so tedious.
I disagree strongly. His talk, his topics. I understand where ypu are coming from, but if he feels the need to talk about politics, not talking about it can be very frustrating and feels like muzzling yourself.
@@AuronAD I agree, and why I didn't refrain from my comment. If he feels so compelled, it isn't anyone's job to stop him (unless the venue wants to). But I did wish to express my preferences, hopefully conveid in a polite way.
Politics should be left out, as it ages too fast. Read a comedy by Aristophanes, and try to find, let along explain, the jokes without using the footnotes. Try it for Gulliver's Travels - the BigEndian vs. LittleEndian Controversy has nothing to do with bit positioning in a serial stream, but was funny for some reason to Swift's readers. Remember the Administration witness during Watergate whose statement was incredibly detailed but could remember nothing under questioning? Remember Johnny Carson's response that night? Remember Johnny Carson? Remember the Minority Council except for his TV/Movie career?

Sleep sort is basically a bucket sort where the buckets are temporal rather than spacial. The time complexity is O(max(a_i)).
Does he always talk about FizzBuzz?
He reuse a lot of small things from different talks all the time.
Repetition is the mother of all cargo cult. ;)
he proves semantics exists for a reason
Woah.... I've always had Kevlin down as a CS and typography guru..... but he knows the score with Judge Dredd movies too!
BRB, googling where the Wix offices are so I can try to steal some wi-fi.
Seriously though - fantastic talk.

Nice ... german "Gesundheit" at 52:33
superb talk!
Excellent talk!
He's my new #Hero
Sharing brilliant ideas is brilliant it self .
3:47 humble brag
Alfred Aho also co-wrote the Dragon book.
Indeed! - Thx for that info :)
Sleepsort! In standard sense, it's really exponential rather than linear. But I love the idea anyways :)

try 2^n

Noch nie so schnell abgewixxt
WTF...1:14:32 for something that could be explained in less than 5 minutes...try wikipedia

Yeah but I had forgotten orange man bad, so I’m glad baldy code bloke reminded me.
History has shown Kevlin's socialistic ideas to be poor.
?
Byron doesn't seem to have a handle on open-source, @@williamchamberlain2263
Quite useless. Small boring contrived examples, no relevance to the real world whatsoever.
Great as always, except talking about politics. The Politics should be left to political talks, not in our tech talks. Thanks,

Human relationships are politics. And software development is all about human relationships.
