So the idea here is to talk about programming, all the way down to the nitty-gritty: the bits we all know and love. In particular, I intend to focus on lower-level topics, such as what a piece of code actually does, rather than architecture and design. I’m passionate about performance, so you’ll find both rants about performance problems I come across and discussions of work I’ve done to speed things up when I can. A lot can be done with a computer, but to keep it real, it’s all about the bits :)
