what do you think you will get out of this? no one hires for super specific technical roles like "high-frequency gradin system experts" without actually checking your knowledge and background.

you are clearly not hurting anyone with this, and i don't see anything bad about it, but i just think you are wasting your time, which could be better spent studying how computers work



Thanks for the perspective! The goal isn’t to get hired immediately for a super-specific role—it’s more about learning and experimenting with ultra-low-latency systems. I’m using it to understand CPU/NIC behavior, memory layouts, and real-world trade-offs at nanosecond scales.

Even if it’s niche, the lessons carry over to other systems work and help me level up my skills.
