"""
Conceptual complexity: the incidental complexity of the code is low,
because it directly realises the mathematical algorithm, whose intrinsic
complexity is, for the non-mathematical layman, about a cup of tea's
worth of scribbling on a notepad
Time complexity: you know, i have no idea; it's probably related to the
number of factors in the inputs, and the number of factors in common

What i learned my last job
  • That working with a group of smart and well-informed developers is really enjoyable, but not sufficient to reliably make high-quality software (i don't know why not).
  • How modern system administration is done, and a little about how it ought to be done.
  • That large-scale automated CI, with dozens and dozens of slaves testing every conceivable aspect of the software in a short space of time, is possible and awesome.
  • That if one day you don't feel like doing a proper job of something, or perhaps even finishing it at all, you can just tell everyone you're "focusing on delivering the business value", and it's fine.
  • That the financial industry really is run just as badly as you feared.
