Some knowledge about compiler was interesting. The advise to use combined return types (for errors and value) instead of exceptions is ridiculous. Some other points are weird as well. Changing language to avoid null…

No, BFS is ment to explore all nodes abd edges systematicaly, while ant algorithms may never explore a whole bunsh of nodes. They do they search not systematically but by walking paths randomly at the beginning and spreading pheromons while doing so. Finding shorter paths will result in a higher pheromon level remaining and thus direct next ants to these shorter paths instead of longer ones.

You wouldn’t know, what they will do before executing the program and they will propably find shorter paths if you use 1000 ants instead of 100.

In my results I drew a graph the highlights the ant’s paths by thicknes. I drew such a graph after (for example) 10, 100 and 1000 ants. You could see, that the first ants took a path randomly and after 100 iterations, some of the shorter edges became a bit thicker than others. At the end, only the shortest edges where drawn with high thickness while the longest one where rarely used if at all

I implemented a self made or at least adapted ant based algorithm to solve a mathematical problem. Each ant walks a route which represents a possible solution. The shortest path is the best solution. It takes advantage of swarm intelligence.

I don’t get the point. Are their prices too low? Increase it. I don’t unterstand, what their additional money is about.

Well wrong platform…

Usually they ignore critique and they tell people, problems aren’t there or are located on other points than they really are.

For example the FP4 (and some of the former models) had heavy problems with ghost inputs coming from they mainboard jack for the display. They claimed, it is a software issue which obviously was a lie. It took them more than a year (nearly two) to provide this “fix”. It simply suppresses inputs. Sometimes ghost inputs still occur and users reported that the display does not work if the phone touches a ground like a table.
This was not taken into account nor fixed since August 2023.

Additionally I use /e/OS (which is a mess as well) and they advertise using it and they even sell phones with this OS preinstalled. When I had another issue (coming from FP not /e/) they annoyed me with several steps like using the safe mode. After reallizing that this is the well known issue that many others have already reported before in official tickets and claimed in the forum, they responded: /e/ is not supported.

The ridiculous security update problems are still not handled properly.

My guess: They will ignore all these negative topics and only answer things like: Yes, you can replace battery by yourself
