#[0] is there a video of your discussion with Casey Muratori about clean code killing performance?

Was there such a thing or am I hallucinating?

He kicked the whole discussion off with a youtube video that was highly critical of Clean Code.

Other people wanted me to respond and that led to the github discussion.

Can also be audio. The important thing is that I can't read.

Oh, #[0] could read that if it was a written discussion! If only we had a system to pay sats to make some articles more attractive for him to pick than others...

😅 If only I could keep up with it. The website has been a ghost town. I'm dedicating a lot to it, but I'm still only on aesthetic changes and branding assets, the rest of the overhaul in design and function is next on the table.

Need any help?

Would you like me to create a video/audio where I read the whole thing aloud? It's not very long.

So far it's all been conducted on github: https://github.com/unclebob/cmuratori-discussion/blob/main/cleancodeqa.md

There are no current plans for a video; but you never know about things like that.

I’ve now watched Casey’s video and skimmed the discussion. The video was about a CPU-bound program. Most of the software I’ve worked on has been I/O-bound. I’m not sure I would have noticed a difference had I adopted anti-clean-code principles.

Yeah, that's Casey's main point. He works in the game industry where nanoseconds count for a lot. He wrote a gaming framework that I think is pretty popular. So his focus was on deep CPU bound issues that most of us seldom encounter.
