I don't know. Software engineering is tangential to my field but I have to wonder, is software efficiency even a consideration these days?
It seems that maybe a week of just solid thinking about what they have and what they need - WITHOUT touching a keyboard - could have put them in a better position. But move fast and break things doesn't seem to accommodate that kind of approach.
I think it's more of a "chatgpt, design my product for me" type situation.
Sometimes I wonder if people come up with the most inefficient application on purpose just to come up with a bandwidth heavy use case for some new communication tech (5G wireless, or 1Gb fiber, or..)
What a glorious future AI is heralding.
