That's not what I was talking about. Optimizing queries to DBs is nothing like optimizing SIMD layout.

He's very data and performance oriented. He gives advice on how to write games, high-performance systems. His advice is solid and great even, but not when your source of latency is a cloud DB.

It invalidated some flavors of string theory, but my understanding is that you have almost infinite numbers of free params you can tweak. In other words super symmetry wasn't excluded, just excluded for XeV where X is what LHC is able

My argument is that more people agree with statement X the likelier it will be. Even more if they are from a field that is closely related.
