    But the pile now has to be sorted upon access, and depending on the query (such as trying to find matching socks), this will likely become wildly inefficient.

      That’s why I only own black socks, and just wear jeans, t-shirt and hoodie/shirt

        5x work shirts, 5x work pants, bagged/black t-shirts and fisherman pants for home, all black socks. L1 cache is the drier. L2 is the shelf next to the drier. There is nothing beyond L2.

        I worked with a guy who had 5 sets of the same work clothes. Wore the same outfit everyday, and yes it was all black head to toe.

        I never did verify if he actually had 5 sets of clothes or just liked washing one pair everyday, but he never stank so whichever it was worked out.

          he probably had 25. Ive maybe 6 of one shirt, 5 of another, three or four of a few others, 15 pairs of pants. All the shirts are black, gray, black in a different material, or gray in a a different material. Pants are all black or blue. Jackets all black. 100 pairs of the same sock. I can dress in the dark and everything matches.

            That’s a ridiculous amount of clothes! 15 pairs of pants…WTF!?

            I have 5 t-shirts for private use, 2 for work, 3 shirts, 2 pairs of pants and maybe 10 pairs of socks…

              They pile up over time if you buy quality clothes and stay the same size. maybe 5 are in “Oil change and mechanical work” condition now.

          I’ve got work “uniforms”, and weekend “uniforms”. Probably 7 or 8 changes of each, but all the work clothes are identical and all the weekend clothes are identical.

          I look ageless in photos cause I always have the same stuff on, and getting dressed is so easy. Probably no good for people who care about fashion though. Glad I don’t tbh, shits expensive and wasteful.

      “Sorted upon access”? When adding to the pile, I make sure I can still see a piece of every article of clothing. Random access is only grabbing and yanking.

      Adding is O(n log n), removing is O(1)

      …wait, you just throw socks onto the pile without putting matching pairs together beforehand? I’ve learned that an alternate universe exists, and I’m not okay with it.
