When I was younger, I've spent an entire summer working here and there, with the explicit goal to buy an 8MB stick of ram, so I can play Quake. Got the biggest ballacking from my dad about "wasting" all that moneis. Since the

I think there is a bit of misunderstanding about what my post was about: it is not enough to make your app code async if you don't have all the infra to support that, hence why async in python didn't take the world by storm.

Is there any proof that he said that, apart the movie? I'm not arguing he didn't, but the only place I've found to support that is the movie. I didn't try very hard either...
