Damn, I don't have much to say but good work kid. That's an insane amount of work on your own tooling, some of the most satisfying stuff I generally work on.

It is not a weird bar at all when the "personal view" here is being a Nazi. The action of believing in Nazism is actually a disbarring for any role of trust, integrity, or value in our society. Being a Nazi is not a protected stat

I see people downvoting this. Anyone who disagrees with this, we have YAGNI for a reason - if someone said to me my performance was fine and they added caches, I would look at them with a big hairy eyeball because we already know cache inva

Yep at every company I have ever worked at the question is not only how to assert control, but how to maintain it for the long term. Even if the company isn't exploiting you today, they want the option for later.
