I'm debugging a script...

It takes 1+ minute to start because it loads data from remote API and apparently loading 80k objects takes a lot of time, even though I need only headers

I could optimize it. Like, add a local cache. But I will not.

Instead I will waste 1 minute, then another minute, then another minute, each time hoping it's the last pass, but no. I will waste the whole day on it and at the end of the day I will still NOT have the slightest idea why it is slow. That is what will happen, I predict it.

Good times

    Maybe it's slow because it has to load those 80k objects every time from the api?

    "Developer time is more valuable than CPU time"? There's only 1.44k minutes in a day, you know... 60 in one hour. 480 in a working day. And a full minute to start an application, I've made scripts do entire network overhauls in less than that...
