I'm just having fun 7 months ago

I'm asking this question purely out of curiosity, and not as a snark, is there any particular reason why you don't capitalise the beginnings of your sentences? It seems strange to go to the effort of capitalising STEM and putting a hyphen in college-level without capitalising the letters. Is it something like the push towards sans-serif fonts because some groups of people find it easier to read?

Am I getting the math wrong here? Going from O(n) to O(log n) (with no change in constant factor) for a million items would be going from ~1000000c ops to ~20c ops, which would be a 50000x improvement?

Gaussian Blur isn't the most efficient way of doing a frosted glass blur effect though. IIRC the current state of the art is the Dual Kawase blur, which is what KDE uses for its blurred transparency effect, I've never observed performance issues having it running on my machine.
