The Summoning Salt homage at 8:26 is brilliant. Fantastic video!

8:24 Amazing trick! It reminds me of computer graphics class where we had to find a way to improve the DDA Line algorithm... No one could do it. Then, the professor showed us the Bresenham algorithm. It's such a simple concept - instead of working with floats, work with integers! - but it saves soooo much time. It goes to show that sometimes the data type you're working with can have a huge effect on how fast your code is.
Drawing a parallel to Machine Learning, this is also why new GPUs have FP8 and FP16 as big selling points. Training with FP32, which is still the standard for a lot of applications, is just dog slow compared to using FP16 or even FP8.

I had a project last year where I had to automate a manual process using Python to extract data from an Excel file and auto-fill an XML file. After I finished the project, I reduced the process from 3 months of human work to a 20-minute code run, which made me and my boss very happy. I wish I had seen this video last year; we could have been even happier. Nevertheless, it's great to know that I can achieve such high levels of Python performance. I will ensure better time management for my future projects.
Thanks.
