@unused0 i'll keep an eye out for other threads on the topic then. If it turns out to be an impact area then awesome!

@unused0 I see this point brought up a lot both on these threads and on HN. I'm curious what sort of difference efficient code makes on the end usage of energy. If I'm on bare metal, it's drawing power whether I'm loading a crappy webpage or not, right? Is that a tangible difference? If I'm on a virtual cluster, my unused cycles are just going to another user, aren't they? Is this a case of little stuff adding up to a lot? Is there a real payoff?

Thanks to everyone for chiming in on the coders vs climate change question. I've a few tangible leads to follow up with.

@erkin nope. it's been intentionally ignored by the gopher community almost from the moment it was released

@solderpunk it's more about putting your skills to good use. Everything you say is true, but what more can people with this specific skillset give back that others can't?

Great question on HN today: "What can a coder do to help combat climate change?"

The responses are all pretty lame, though. What ideas do you have? What groups are doing something tangible where volunteer coding could help?

@lrhodes oh thank you. I can never remember the name of this technique

@Ricardus I want a shot clock

@gemlog @trebach @papa in this case, i think there's a murder. AKA, not for kids type "adult"

@Ricardus a water dancer has no name. Arya never escaped the Red Keep. It's been Syrio Forel this entire time and he is a faceless man. Also, somehow, he's the heir to the iron throne.

My favorite april fools joke today

@koenaro luckily the gopher site still lives!

@srinicame lynx, VF-1, or sacc

@mwlucas well, once i finish reading every other thing you've published i'll be sure to come back and bug you for it. :)

@mwlucas totally unrelated, but did I see you're writing/wrote a sequel to git commit murder?
