Hashed sorting is typically faster than hash tables

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-30 05:03:21

Hashed sorting is typically faster than hash tables Problem statement: count the unique values in a large array of mostly-unique uint64s.

Hash tables win the interview ( O ( n ) O(n) O(n) vs O ( n log ⁡ n ) O(n \log n) O(nlogn)), but sorting is typically faster in a well-tuned implementation. This problem and its variants are the inn

Samsung calls iPhone 17 keynote a ‘Zzz-note,’ forgets Galaxy S25 series exists

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-03 08:18:23

TL;DR Samsung has criticized Apple’s iPhone 17 series launch as a “Zzz-note.” The company made the comments as part of a competition announcement on Twitter. This comes despite Samsung’s own Galaxy S25 phones being conservative upgrades. Apple announced the iPhone 17 series this week, and there are a few reasons to be excited about these devices. All models have a nifty square selfie camera, there’s a super-slim iPhone Air (if you care about a slim and light design), and Pro models get a 48MP

Samsung’s Galaxy Ultra phones could be stuck with the same telephoto camera until 2027

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR According to Ice Universe, Samsung plans to use the same 50MP telephoto sensor on the Galaxy S6 Ultra and S27 Ultra as the one it introduced on the S24 Ultra. The tipster previously claimed that the Galaxy S26 Ultra may actually downgrade the 3x shooter to a smaller sensor. If true, the move would echo Samsung’s decision to stick with its 200MP ISOCELL HP2 main sensor and Sony’s IMX754 3x sensor across multiple generations. Samsung’s Ultra flagships are

Scientists Stunned as Tiny Algae Keep Moving Inside Arctic Ice

Scientists know that microbial life can survive under some extreme conditions—including, hopefully, harsh Martian weather. But new research suggests that one particular microbe, an algal species found in Arctic ice, isn’t as immobile as it was previously believed. They’re surprisingly active, gliding across—and even within—their frigid stomping grounds.

F1 in Italy: Look what happens when the downforce comes off

Formula 1 held its Italian Grand Prix at Monza this past weekend. It's the third-oldest purpose-built racetrack on the planet, and even includes an old and rather dangerous-looking oval that, while no longer in use, is accessible on foot if you feel like exploring. It's a deceptively simple-looking track where it's all about top speed, and nailing your braking into the four heavy deceleration zones.
