This kind of sarcastic social critique well designed site reminds of better times for the Internet... before the dark times... before Facebook.
On the flip side this is a real process that essentially works. The book "Algorithms to Love By" decides a chapter to solutions to meat space retrieval problems.

#62Earlier quoted context omitted.
I am a competitor of Shitbowl, and my product ("Shitdrawer") solves this issue!
However, while it's true that your product is O(1) even in the worst case, when you look closer it's actually O(1) + O(1) even in the best case, as you have to open the Shitdrawer to even get the the most recently used item. Do you have any solution to this?

#63This implementation is O(n) on retrieval, rather than O(1) as in the ideal case. Hopefully v2 will optimize that in the near future.

#66Looks like a nice prototype. In the real world Id like to see some basic provisions for type safety though. If the last thing used was a half drank rocks glass of tequila the integrity of the entire cache will be threatened. * they all sound like "stupid problems" till your boss is calling at 3AM because the system is down.

#68Why is this a product? I could implement this myself in a weekend with a few open source libraries.

#69Mine keeps throwing Overflow. How can I open a bug?
