Calculate Before Thinking: The “ThinkLater” Paradigm That Turbocharges Code (Day 5 — A Programmer + AI Build a New Method in 3 Hours)
What if the fastest way to think… is to compute first? That’s the counterintuitive spark behind “ThinkLater,” a performance optimization paradigm born in a three‑hour sprint between a curious beginner and an AI. It delivers a simple but radical shift: don’t overanalyze each decision as you go—front‑load the work that computers do unbelievably well, then…
