Solid DP problem, which requires a bit of smartness

Description understanding helper: not power[i -1], power[i - 2], ... BUT INSTEAD power[i] - 1, power[i] - 2. It saved me a lot of time.

New era - LLM injection. I already see how some guys create some cyber attack by injecting vulnarable shit into bunch of public github repos, and then yeah, and then vibecoders will do the rest of the job😁

Okay, if you wear this one - the code won't have any vulnarabilities

Today is free problem, basically the yesterday daily's solution will work (with little adjustment)

Officially stating, fuck windows - the worst shit humanity ever created. I gonna switch to linux, I WAS FUCKING WAITING 2 WINDOWs, LAPTOP TO FUCKING LOAD ME YOUTUBE TO WATCH MORNING STARCRAFT FOR 15 MINUTES!!!!!

in general, WHAT THE FUCK is with software, why ALLL is SOOOOOOO SLOOW. Maybe this is my childhood memories but I do remember how windows XP was fucking fast, everything was loading instantly.
Now (talking only about windows) and specifically windows products. Want to open browser - take you 10 secs, want to open teams - good luck, 1-2 mins on cold start + 1 more minute to load fucking 1 week of calendar (that's why I always late 3-4 minutes on the morning stand ups).

Fucking azure dev ops ui, you want to return from the specific build page to ALL builds page - wait youir 5-10 seconds, WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO SOFTWARE.

I don't know I'm thinking too fast for this load time, it is painful all the time to wait until some page loads, when in my mind I'm already 3-4 steps ahead

Daily is not the easiest one, a lot of edge cases, and requires pretty deep analysis of the problem.
