It’s insane we live in a world where you can buy a 96 core CPU! I feel like it wasn’t too long ago that i was getting excited by building a quad core gaming PC.

As an aside, What do people do with all those cores?

Run electron apps with only 400ms key-to-screen latency?

Compiling scales well with number of cores.
