      I feel like there's a second type of time complexity, and it's the amount of time involved in writing the code. Sometimes writing the code takes longer than brute forcing your desired result.

    You guys should look into low-caf. There are a few strains of coffee being developed that are naturally very low on caffeine so you don't have to ruin it by decaffinating it. It's rare, so therefore expensive, but soooooo worth it! It's a real game changer and I think with your platform you could make it viable for farmers to go for it and make it bigger. Seriously. It would be making the coffee world better along with making the world better in general. How could you say no to that?

    I'm going to keep commenting about no show stocks and pray that maybe they'll happen in the future. No show socks can be fun, too! And I would like to wear them!

    I just subscribed my partner and I to the sock club (SC) as my Christmas present! Just a tip!

    I really hope next year you have socks for size 13 and up sometimes having big feet stinks
