And it seems that scheduling to minimize latency may be a genetic trait ...
My daughter is home for Thanksgiving. I asked her to do something, and her
answer was "Sure but let me put this in the oven first. I like to start the
thing I have to wait for before I do something else."
When I told her she was practicing latency hiding, she thought that was
funny, but launched into a complaint about the ordering of the recipes a few
minutes later, as in: "Why do they tell you to grease the pans first, when
there's going to be a bunch of times where you have to wait a few minutes
anyway and you could do it then?"
Plus she started her laundry before any of this .... she's better at latency
hiding than I am. Too bad she's a Poly Sci major ...
too funny :)

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up
where I needed to be.
