Hi,

Terrence Tao is a payed troll, by the System
Inteligence Sect Movement. Right? Now I read:

Slow Software: The Case for High-latency Systems Development
https://www.sigops.org/2026/slow-software-the-case-for-high-latency-systems-development/

Terrence Tao has a YT video about slow is better
than fast. Here he claims there is litterally a
paradox of efficiency:

Terrence Tao: The paradox of efficiency
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svl_1upFpQo

He litterally paints a romantic picture of a
manchete excursion into an eldorado, while beaten
by a helicopter. LoL

I think its unhealthy to confuse efficient/ineffeicient and
slow/fast with exact/inexact and careful/careless etc..
These people are just morons.

Bye
