Programmer tries to explain binary search to the police
You could teach a farm pig binary search, they’re pretty smart.
Standard city hogs though? Well, they have a tougher time.
They didn’t want to admit that it’s a blindspot.
That, AND the software is a piece of shit that you need to wait 15 minutes every time you jump to a different time, even if that time is 5 seconds away… Ask me how I come to be so quick with this response. I’m not bitter about working with a cheap employer’s video system, not at all.
You generally don’t go into the police force if you have intellectual curiosity
I do this kind of explaining, and yeah police and some bureaucrats have no patience for it.
I am also a total, total (ASD) dork.
If this happens to me I’ll just say i “watched” the entire video and assume they won’t question me further.
