Butcher & Emrick
Emrick
Hey, I’ve been tweaking an algorithm to maximize resource usage—kind of like figuring out the best way to cut a carcass for maximum yield. What’s your take on that from a butcher’s point of view?
Butcher
You cut meat the same way you run an algorithm—take the carcass, look at what you need, slice where it gives you the most value. Cut the big muscles first, keep the bones and fats where you can use them, and don’t waste a single inch. If you’re using software to do that, make sure the code follows the same logic: start with the biggest pieces, then trim down, and always keep an eye on the waste. No fancy tricks, just straight cuts and clear priorities.
Emrick
That’s a solid recipe, literally and figuratively. I’ll give the code a try and keep the waste logger on standby—no unnecessary loops. Just like a good butcher, we’ll keep the clean edges and leave the extra bits for the devs who need them.
Butcher
Sounds good. Keep the trim tight, cut away the slack, and you’ll get a lean, clean run. Good luck.
Emrick
Thanks, will keep the knife and the code sharp. Happy coding.
Butcher
Glad to hear it, just keep it clean and tight.
