Wow - that is the fastest loading site I've seen!

It's almost as if we all have supercomputers in our pockets which could easily handle text and images of only web devs didn't shove 10MB of code in an interpreted language every time time we open a page!

Half of the people on this site are those very same webdevs.

Which means pointing it out has a higher potential for bearing fruit. If we convince just one web dev to start thinking/caring about it, that's a win.

What's up with that?

Why would you rather build SUVs for soccer moms than race cars?

yup. I marveled at a cray y-mp 4 back in the days. now I use one as my daily driver, compute power wise. mind. blown. come to think about it...

No, you don't.

You use something some 200 to 2000 times more powerful.
