If you're working on your own hardware then you aren't part of the problem. The problem is cultural. The majority of manual memory management proponents work on programs that assume 4GB of memory or more and work on projects that are orders of magnitude more complex than they have to be and can't be parallelized because of the premature optimization and aforementioned complexity etc etc.

The problem is the mutual worship of the people writing software and the people creating hardware leading us in a completely arbitrary direction. If you're making your own hardware then it's all what you need, presumably, and you aren't in this hellish loop of progress prevention.


also what the hell kind of device has 4MB of memory. Does it fit in someone's contact lens or what?
