> we have a giant for loop that iterates over all of memory over and over and over to guess when we're done with things. What a mess!
Yeah, that's like having dedicated busboys clean up customers mess and clear tables when they are done in a restaurant. Why can't the customers get up and remove dishes as courses are served? Or the waiter could do it. Why does the poor busboy have to ask "are you done with this?" Now this article is proposing busboys on powered skateboards. What a mess!
