> ELI5: You can turn this problem into finding the best "convolution index", and fourier transforms make computing convolutions cheaper.

I tried this sentence on my 5-year-old and got a blank stare. He then proceeded to tell me a story about how Darth Vader is so scary and cool and that he's actually Luke's father. YMMV.

lol, that makes sense. heres another try:

ELI5 v2: you can look at the sequences a different way, like tilting your head to look at them from a different angle. and from that angle, we can more easily try every possible way of putting them together, so that we can choose the best way.
