I know by heart that "premature optimization is the root of all evil" but not when I'm coding, no! I premature optimize the shit out of my code until I get crippled down and then I undo everything and make a working version no matter how terrible it is.

    I know by heart that "premature optimization is the root of all evil" but not when I'm coding, no! I premature optimize and then quickly run into evil, which I can surely identify the root of! Wait...

    Pssst... Pssst....

    The secret is... you gotta put those premature optimization into the framework or compiler itself while making sure your actual code looks pretty to the beholder.

    Over the last couple of weeks (ney, months) I've come to wonder if it's not actually unnecessary abstractions that's in fact the root of all evil.

    I wonder what happens if we prematurely optimize unnecessarily abstracted code... 🤯
