Optimisation! The art of making things go fast and doing more with less. I’ve always enjoyed a good optimisation, but over time, I’ve learned to view them with a bit more nuance. Optimisation is not neutral, as my dishwasher taught me.

This post is a quick update to my last one, Testing Hy code. Although I found hy to be a compelling idea, I decided to stop using it.

I tested both pytest and nose for testing my hy code. Unfortunately I couldn’t get nose to work. Pytest did work after some weird configuration and monkey patching.
