One July afternoon in 2024, Ryan Williams set out to prove himself wrong. Two months had passed since he’d hit upon a startling discovery about the relationship between time and memory in computing.

This presents a set-based topological sorting algorithm for directed acyclic graphs (DAG). Unlike traditional algorithms that produce a linear order of nodes, it yields a linear sequence of sets of ...
