Tip: I'd read the jandrewrogers comments before engaging. He actually does know more than you. He makes some unusual claims then doesn't back them up because he has no need to. I've spent and hour or three and learnt nothing because he's so far ahead I can't keep up. Perhaps read his profile about the amazing thing he's invented such as http://www.jandrewrogers.com/2015/10/08/spacecurve/

Let me quote a bit. I admit, I don't understand it but then how could I?

Algorithm design using topology manipulation can be enormously challenging to reason about. You are often taking a conceptually simple algorithm, like a nested loop or hash join, and replacing it with a much more efficient algorithm involving the non-trivial manipulation of complex high-dimensionality constraint spaces that effect the same result. Routinely reasoning about complex object relationships in greater than three dimensions, and constructing correct parallel algorithms that exploit them, becomes easier but never easy.

Incredible! I wish I could grok this stuff.

You should save your breath and just get out of the way of the real experts.

Yeah, I should have really checked who I was dealing with first. Standing aside.
