An Efficient Algorithm

Oh. My. GOD! The absolute AUDACITY of this solution! 💀 Instead of writing some fancy algorithm to find the minimum value, this coding rebel just SORTED THE ENTIRE ARRAY and grabbed the first element! The interviewer's face is going through the five stages of grief in 0.2 seconds! It's like showing up to a marathon in a taxi and asking "where's my medal?" Sure, it technically works, but at what cost? THE COMPUTATIONAL COMPLEXITY, KAREN! THE COMPLEXITY! But hey, the code runs, the answer is correct, and sometimes that's all that matters in this cruel, cruel world of programming interviews. Work smarter not harder, I guess?

Ah, JavaScript's default sorting—where even emoji faces aren't safe from algorithmic bias. The code innocently calls sort() on an array of diverse face emojis, but without a compare function, JS sorts by Unicode values. Somehow the browser decided to arrange them by skin tone from lightest to darkest. Not exactly what the developer intended, but a perfect example of why you should always specify your sorting criteria. Remember kids: computers don't understand social context—they just follow instructions, however problematic the results may be.

Ah, the irony of modern tech! Here's a vintage book teaching "Artificial Intelligence in BASIC" from what looks like the 80s, sitting right next to "EXPERT SYSTEMS" on the bookshelf. Fast forward to 2023, and we're all losing our minds over ChatGPT and friends—billion-dollar AI systems built on Python, a language that would make your CPU cry if you asked it to calculate 2+2 in less than half a second. The cosmic joke is that we've gone from programming AI in languages designed to be "Beginner's All-purpose" to building world-changing models with a language where indentation errors can crash your entire system. Somewhere, this book's author is either laughing hysterically or weeping uncontrollably.

The brutal truth of modern tech interviews! At home, you're basically Thanos with the infinity gauntlet of tools—VSCode, GitHub Copilot, DeepSeek, and other AI assistants making you feel like you could snap half the bugs out of existence. But the moment you step into that interview room? Suddenly you're Rhino from Spider-Man—sweating in a ridiculous costume while trying to remember how to reverse a linked list on a whiteboard. The cognitive dissonance between our tool-augmented daily coding superpowers and the bare-metal interview process is the ultimate developer identity crisis.

Oh. My. GOD! Bitcoin mining explained in the most SAVAGE way possible! 😱 Imagine playing a cosmic lottery where you're trying to guess a number between 1 and 10 22 (that's a 1 with TWENTY-TWO zeros after it, sweetie). The odds are so astronomically ridiculous that your computer would literally burst into flames before guessing correctly! Yet here we are, with thousands of miners worldwide melting the polar ice caps with their electricity consumption just to play this mathematical slot machine from hell. And for what? The CHANCE to win 3.125 Bitcoin that they'll probably never sell because "it might go up more." The delusion is BREATHTAKING!

Ah, the mythical parallel universe where bogosort—the algorithm equivalent of throwing a deck of cards in the air and hoping they land in order—actually works reliably. In our dimension, this disaster of an O(n×n!) algorithm would take longer than the heat death of the universe to sort your Netflix queue. But somewhere out there, developers are using it in production and getting promotions while we're stuck optimizing quicksort like suckers.
