There is no doubting Casey's chops when he talks about performance, but as someone who has spent many hours watching (and enjoying!) his videos, as he stares puzzled at compiler errors, scrolls up and down endlessly at code he no longer remembers writing, and then - when it finally does compile - immediately has to dig into the debugger to work out something else that's gone wrong, I suspect the real answer to programmer happiness is somewhere in the middle.
