Jeff is one of those multitude who wish everything to be just so , which I very much apprise about him .
I need him to apportion his homescreen with us , question if it would be the same affair .
I was not let down .
Here ’s Jeff ’s homescreen , plus some information on the apps he apply and why :
The telephone : iPhone 16 Pro .

🤷 ♂ ️ My lockscreen is a picture I make in Copenhagen .

I utilize theDueapp convenience to catch to - do ’s when I ’m on the go and then I channelise these onto anAnalog Cardonce I ’m at my desk so they really get done .
Fantastical ’s rude speech remark is so much dainty than iCal ’s .
“ Call with David Pierce tomorrow 10AM .

Thetraveling salesman problemis one of those affair that overbold multitude in technical school just kind of befuddle around all the metre , as sort of a tachygraphy for problem that seem straight but turn over out to be massively hard even for knock-down figurer .
The mere variant of the TSP is just this : if I give you a leaning of city , and the distance between each of them , what ’s the shortest potential path that get to them all at once and then back to where you bulge ?
There are really fate of solution to circumstances of version of this job , but it ’s still part of how algorithmic program are mean of and test .
