- thfuran 3y agoIt's frankly amazing how slow a lot of everyday stuff is given how damn fast modern hardware is.
- aqfamnzc 3y agoIt sure seems like modern hardware's speed is wasted on making things slightly easier for devs, rather than speed or performance increases for users huh. If 29 layers of abstraction saves a little dev time over 5 layers, that's fine, but it feels like it creates this unnecessary requirement to use <5y old hardware to run things smoothly
