We should be worried, because some folks think a limited nuclear war is possible and winnable. It isn't!!

A nuclear war simulation shows the devastation we could face if one country pulls the trigger

The simulation shows what would happen in the aftermath of a roughly 1,200-warhead nuclear attack on the United States.

That's a new one. I've heard only of weed added. 🤭

Time Complexity (Big O) simplified:

- When your calculation is not dependent on the input size, it is a constant time complexity (O(1)).
- When the input size is reduced by half, maybe when iterating, handling recursion, or whatsoever, it is a logarithmic time complexity (O(log n)).
- When you have a single loop within your algorithm, it is linear time complexity (O(n)).
- When you have nested loops within your algorithm, meaning a loop in a loop, it is quadratic time complexity (O(n^2)).
- When the growth rate doubles with each addition to the input, it is exponential time complexity (O2^n).

He's also not sure. That's why it's an hypothesis.

"The success of the mission means we will not have to face the same fate as the dinosaurs...", which MAY BE true, depending on the size of the celestial body on a colliding course with Earth... among other unknowns. 😎

New image of the planet Jupiter taken last night from Isabela, PR. In this image, you can clearly see the Great Red Spot and the moon Io to the left of the planet.
