- CGamesPlay 17y agoAgreed. Despite its "provocative title", the "eternal optimism of programmers" rings true in my book!
- Kirby 17y agoYes. Except I really have implemented caching in a half-day, using memcached. :) (Utterly fixed the speed issues with the site I was working on then, incredibly easy to use.) That was a good day. It almost never happens like that - in fact, the irony for me is the example he uses in the quote is just about the only time where it was _substantially_ easier to do something than I expected. :)
