Manually optimizing the code I wrote in C, so that it runs noticeably slower and has all sorts of stupid bugs that weren't there before. All in a good night's work.

That doesn’t sound like optimization.

[-] Freesoftwareenjoyer@lemmy.world 17 points 7 months ago

No worries, he can optimize it later.

[-] herrvogel@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

To you, maybe.

[-] Hellstormy@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

It's just reverse optimizing!

Well, I guess it's either writing a device driver or that.

And the device driver will always end-up with most code in C or Rust.

Doing vector operations because the MCU vendor didn't provide APIs for it.

(did not actually do that but was preparing to before we came to our senses and ditched that MCU)
