I'm an architecture person. I work on things like stable system design, API design, code simplification, algorithm design. No coworker I know _ever_ thought "I gotta talk to Casey" if they were stumped on an optimization problem!

its funny cause I bet you could find comments from literally every account criticizing you for where they complain about something being slow

If you care that computers don't waste 99.9% of their cycles, you are performance-focused now, I guess.
-
I believe that if you know at least anything about how to do that, you are 'performance-focused', because nobody actually knows how to do it. It isn't taught in schools or talked on conferences that much as should be, if even talked at all.

Coding might be the one walk of life where "performance-focused" can be a put-down.
-
"Well, I would take that coder's advice with a grain of salt, because they are well-known for thinking that they should do a good job instead of phoning it in."

I'm not a performance expert but care about performance. In my latest post I started by addressing the Knuth-quoters. I then got comments from the other camp because on my example I used something unrelated that is slow...https://link.medium.com/T9YXoUXLHhb

Where are these comments? Your original tweet don't have any and there are none on the page itself.

I could relate. I'm just having the same kind of discussion with creators of a super-oop anim system (not granny)...with similar results, so far

When I started following handmade hero some years ago, I suggested to my colleagues that we could learn from it and improve even in our field (e-commerce with C#. NET). Was met with almost hostile negativity because "the compiler takes care of that" and "premature optimization!"

I remember feeling so disappointed. Was expecting something more like "wow, how interesting. Let's explore it together".
