   Anytime you start talking about massive speedups, it's important to go re-read Amdahl's law. The key isn't how much you can speed up the scalable/parallelizable portions, it's how limited you are by the non-scalable

   Pro tip: If you're writing an article on the significance of something called I/Q, it's cool to somewhere in the first couple pages say something about what I/Q is.

   One day you'll look back on how this technology is being used for actual real evil, and have to deal with the fact that your early naivety about the "value" you were bringing helped get us to that point.

    What astounds me is there are no readily available libraries crawler authors can reach for to parse robots.txt and meta robots tags, to decide what is allowed, and to work through the arcane and poorly documented priorities between the two
