Can’t get any “greener”, have we gone back to the old client/server age, with such constraints as:

  • Assembly based object code gneration (As opposed to inefficient, CPU hungry technologies such as Java, interpreters, and multi layers of “modern age” technologies relying on them (Ajax, etc…)

  • Binary Protocols (As opposed to CPU hungry text bases protocols & technologies such as HTML, XML)…

We just can’t expect to go both Web 2.0 and Green!

I came for the embedded software space, and there is no faster way to get a healthy respect for code efficiency than writing software for an underpowered platform with limited memory, that the customer expects to perform miracles.
