   yes! non standard data wrangling, even if just for fun, is great way to gain a better standing of your workload and hardware. tldr; [de]serialization is your bottleneck, after that it’s general data processing. both are wasting insane level

    this is awesome. aws and cf are the perfect combo, and them competing on quality and price is great for consumers. aws is the control plane cf is the data plane and entrypoint. what a time to build.

    the amount of engineering hours wasted making macos usable for backend dev work and then wasted again from inefficiency due to that failure is staggering. linux is great. macos is great. windows is great too. for their intended purposes. it

    high performance gamedev with cpp17, physx, wickedengine, clion, and linux. it feels amazing to be able to spend time inside the program as it develops.

    it doesn’t have to work like that, mine doesn’t. maybe chatgpt can help setup your init.el. it’s quite a good experience when tuned.

    printf and fast iteration are all that’s needed. golang got that much right. my pace on clojure and my pace on go are the same. the vibes are different though. my current 20s iterations with cpp are not great.
