I do server side stuff so battery life and disk space aren't the most pressing of performance concerns for me. However i do take an interest in producing clean maintainable code that performs well. No one higher up gives a shit about these things, they just want their new feature out faster.

That's because as a good developer you know that ignoring those things will eventually bite you on the ass.

Unfortunately as we all know, the problem is that you're the one who will get bit on the ass, not them.

"Your feature made things slow down - you need to fix it!! Oh, BTW we need this next new feature as well".
