I have also run this fun thought experiment! More of the world than many might imagine could run on outdated hardware if software optimization was truly a priority, and market price signals on scarce compute would make it happen. Rebuild all the interpreted microservice based products into monolithic native codebases! Innovative new products would get much rarer without super cheap and scalable compute, of course. https://x.com/ID_AA_Carmack/status/1922100771392520710
