As a wise man once said: “Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.” There’s a comparable race between hardware engineers striving to build faster and more capacious systems and programers blithely consuming all the cpu and memory they can find. So far, the programmers are winning that one.
