Readit News40 microwatts of power, to be precise. Compared to, say, 5V*1A=5W of typical phone charger, this is impractical by a large margin.

Is anyone else impressed with the quality (and speed!) of some of the tools written in Rust? I'm an avid user of fd and bat, the former being ridiculously fast. Often I find something on github, I'm impressed by the quality of the documentation, features, UI etc, then lo and behold it's written in Rust.
Another one potentially for this list is tokei[1] I was trying to count the code in our repos at work and used the venerable 'cloc' utility. It took over 5 minutes. Looking around I found tokei, written in rust. Same-ish results (more accurate actually) took 10 seconds.
This could actually be caused by disk caching effects. Have you tried running cloc second time afterwards?

Well, that's why I always define RED(x) (for reduce modulo) as ((((x) % MOD) + MOD) % MOD). Quite useful in algorithmic competitions, which often ask you for answer modulo some prime.
And the value of karma is? There are many intelligent people here on HN. The fact that we even mention such a petty concept as karma shows we got hooked up on these little mind tricks just as easily as everyone else.
And thus you used a throwaway account...

From the listed words only two have immediately obvious Polish connotations (dźjada (grandpa), and dziadek is grandpa in Polish; śpjelik (sparrow), where śpiewać is "to sing"). Most words have German-ish sound to them, somewhat similar to Silesian subdialect of Polish (though Silesia was occupied by Germany, which is the reason for its influence). The spelling is mostly Polish-like, perhaps from older centuries though; except for some umlauts which clearly originate in German and similar.

As far as complexity goes, this should be linear in number of vertices. In fact, you don't even really have to construct the graph, just count out degree.
