> a "low-overhead" parallelization library

Who is out here building high-overhead parallelization libraries?

discuss

order

zamalek|1 year ago

I have almost certainly built high overhead parallelization primitives during my junior years.

Check out my high-overhead replacement for 'cat' in BASH

    ~ $ type cat
    cat is a function
    cat () 
    { 
        while read; do
            printf '%s\n' "$REPLY";
        done < "$@"
    }
It probably butchers things. Why? I got bored in a meeting and someone accidentally posted 'cat' to Teams

Relatively, Rayon is higher overhead

Yeah, why are those bastards writing slow code? They should just write fast code instead

silon42|1 year ago

Fast code is often unmaintainable, that's why new high-speed libraries keep popping up.

Yeah and people should make sure not to commit bugs too. I look at all these commits with bugs and I'm like why are you committing bugs.
