No, we can't get gigabit fiber everywhere. No, I don't care if your program needs it. Yes, the laws of physics are laws for a reason. Write more robust code.

Write more robust code.

Sure, I could read a book about best practices and Big O...but...What if we just table the idea for a few iterations of Moore's Law instead?

and Big O

It's asymptotic. Slower O doesn't mean faster program.

Yes! That is key to the joke I was making.
