TWiR quote of the week

@ZiCog

I have just been reading that data centres in Ireland are consuming about 10% of the nations electricity generation capacity and the Irish power grid is under strain.

Scale that thought up around the world and we see that is a huge amount of power consumption. No doubt resulting in a huge amount of C02 emissions and hence global warming.

Given that programs written in PHP, Javascript, Python, Java etc are so inefficient, using more CPU cycles and hence energy, I conclude it is a moral imperative not to use them on such scale.

So, use Rust. Efficient and safe.
