Jimmy Wales has been poked at with the question of whether he should call himself a founder or specifically co-founder for a long time, by right-wingers who think Wikipedia is too woke, and want to irritate and discredit him as much as possible, and instead raise up his co-founder Larry Sanger. Sanger has right-wing views and a habit of accusing any article as biased that doesn't praise Trump and fundamentalist Christian values, and takes these as proof that Wikipedia has a left lean.

The interview Wales walked out of was for his book tour. I imagine it's the umpteenth interview that week with the same question asked for the same transparently bad-faith reasons, trying to bend the interview away from his book and into right-wing conspiracy theory land.

Perhaps it needs a scarier name, like "assume_ok".

This HN discussion about this critique is also quite interesting: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31705239

State of the art there is poly-logarithmic time worst case.

Perhaps GP has a more interesting answer though.

Instead of each node storing the next- and previous-pointers separately, store a single pointer which is the XOR of the two. Which is obviously an invalid pointer. But when iterating, XOR the previous node's pointer with the combined pointer to get the next node's pointer, and so on. You can iterate this way in both directions. Feels illegal. :)

If memtest shows a specific memory region as failing, swap out sticks to check which it is, and buy a new one. (Or if you're on a tight budget, you can disable that region with kernel boot options.)

If memtest gives errors in lots of places, might be a bad overclock. Loosen timings or give it more voltage.
