Curious Efficiency
www.curiousefficiency.org
Efficiency (a virtue) is the child of laziness and greed (both vices), while much of our economic activity is devoted to preventing boredom in the idle time created by increases in efficiency. To be human is to be a strange creature indeed :)
A long-running blog by Python core developer Nick Coghlan, featuring thoughtful essays on software design, programming language evolution, and the human side of efficiency. The writing is clear and unpretentious, offering insights that resonate beyond code into broader problem-solving. Suitable for programmers and anyone interested in how systems — and the people who build them — can work better.
