<p>i don&#39;t think i can rightfully process the extent of disregard for one&#39;s safety that &quot;i will intentionally vibrate my airplane to pieces and then stake it all on my ability to climb out of the flaming debris with a parachute and open it before i hit something&quot; implies</p><p>like i have done some unhinged shit in my own time but i haven&#39;t been even 1% as ... whatever the fuck it is... as they were</p><p>imagination-defying event</p>

@mgaudet@discuss.systems @shriramk@mastodon.social @cfbolz@mastodon.social @shu@mstdn.social @jandem@mastodon.social If we're settling for reminiscences: To expand on what @shu said, the benchmark by which we measured the success of performance efforts at the time was SunSpider, which IIRC was a collection of C benchmarks ported to JS - it just was nothing like the real workload. The lesson I take away is not "don't do tracing" so much as "don't chase bad benchmarks"

<p>there&#39;s got to be something seriously wrong with you for even considering that... procedure, much less actually flying it</p>
