  1. John Hardy not a Turnbull fan: It’s not widely understood, but the Big O is normally explicitly defined as the upper bound, so it’s not incorrect to use a more lenient asymptotic bound.

    It’s the Big Theta that bounds both sides.

  2. John Hardy not a Turnbull fan I studied Old English language and literature (up to 1100 CE), so I get to post any sh*t I want about computers without worried whether it’s correct. It’s sort of like being president of a major OECD country.
