you ever write code so inefficient you have to secure 80% of the world’s DRAM production

@colinstu you'd think with scarcity of RAM developers would refocus on writing more efficient code that can handle tasks with less RAM use.
but instead we get more vibe coding.

@colinstu of course we've long abandoned any pretenses that code needs to actually be useful and work for its intended use case. just more code for the code god.

@elexia @colinstu

while this period sucks, i'm rather positive cause it seems that there is a growing interest at low code, optimization etc... I might be in a echo chamber as it is one of my interests, but as i'm spammed by vibe-code bros and like-it-or-not wannabee, i think it's legit.

@omar @colinstu one can only hope. not much of a computer toucher myself, especially these days, but I do have some interest and hope for a permacomputing movement that would align well with this, even if it's not looking like it will be a mainstream thing in the near future.
