       I've always dreamed of a world in which we have to optimize code for memory usage more often, but I did not expect it to come about because of market distortions by an AI bubble.By the way, I'm an independent consultant who would be thrilled to optimize your code for you! :)https://bowshock.nl/

       "It's hard to understand the myriad forces driving demand and the many factors affect innovation including economies of scale, cultural attitudes towards new ideas, vast marketing campaigns, and the strange events that occur during the death throes of megacorporations. By comparison, understanding the limits of computation is easy, as long as you have a working knowledge of quantum physics, information theory, and the properties of black holes."https://lwn.net/Articles/286233/
