Here's today's thought for the weekend. A little bit of slope makes up for a lot of Y-intercept.

[Laughter]

Operation	Time Complexity
Access	`O(log n)`
Search	`O(log n)`
Insertion	`O(n)` for <= 32 elements, `O(log n)` for > 32 elements [2]
Deletion	`O(n)` for <= 32 elements, `O(log n)` for > 32 elements

	export default (request) => {
	const xhr = require('xhr');
	const query = require('codec/query_string');

	const apiKey = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
	const apiUrl = 'http://api.giphy.com/v1/gifs/search';

	const regex = /\/gif\s\(([^.?]*)\)\|\/gif\s\w+/g;
	let textToAnalyze = request.message.text;
