minus-squareNightFantom@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 months agoTrue, but ending is a lot simpler than forwards 🙃
minus-squarecalliope@retrolemmy.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 months agoWouldn’t it be equally nontrivial? Infinite complexity is still infinite complexity. Doesn’t matter the direction.

minus-squarecalliope@retrolemmy.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-22 months agoThe complexity doesn’t decrease either direction but ok! It’s still infinite.
