There is no hidden depth in "the right thing": perform the intended action with as little time/memory complexity as possible. I disagree completely with what you're saying. If anything, the examples in the post show we still have a lot of opportunities to build better tools at the micro level. We didn't even try To build better tools for complex systems yet.
- jstimpfle 8y agoThe "micro level" is almost completely irrelevant. Performance comes from doing the right thing globally, and it will be a long time before tools can help there. I conjecture that apart from a few artificial benchmarks, the choice of the different approaches here is totally irrelevant. Just don't use the 10000ms approach, and you won't notice a difference in 99% of the real world applications.
