Bottlenecks that can make a computer 20x faster are very rare. First, pay $1m for a specialist to find the bottlenecks. However, it is even rarer that it is a bottleneck of the entire service. Rather, it is more likely to be an accidental drop in performance. Thus, basically performance monitoring is the best use of money.
> Its weird to me that we'll pay thousands of dollars for faster CPUs then write new software in python, electron or a docker container running in a VM.
There are more labor costs and lost commercial opportunities due to delays in development.
As I wrote in my other comment, I meant the article as it relates to technology. My original comment is hidden below so I explain it again here. The safety of the environment surrounding engineers is a serious concern of engineers. Note that even if it is a suicide, it is still a safety problem of the environment surrounding engineers. Since it is Boeing that pressured him until he committed suicide.
So I wrote "concerning safety culture of engineers". Your interpretation is a complete misunderstanding. At least the points voted on my above comment indicate that your interpretation is not the majority. Hence, thanks to the many supporters, my above comment received many votes and was moved to this thread and this thread was eventually returned to the top page.
We must not remain ignorant or indifferent to unsafe working environments.
