Hey Eduardo!

Checkout out this talk from Scott Meyers on CPU caches. By knowing how the computer uses and access the cache you can write code that takes advantage of this and refactor existing code to be more efficient! For me it was rare to write such code in practice but it's nice to know.

Wow... Thanks, Denis.

Scott Meyer is such a great lecturer.

I didn't fully understand most of the concepts, but his easy to follow flow kept me engaged.

This video gave me a better 'picture' of how one might take advantage of their understanding of the computer hardware in some software cases.

Thanks again, Denis.
