I've not had enough sleep and I'm currently experiencing what it must be like for a computer to have a branch prediction miss, followed by a L1 cache miss, followed by L2 and L3 cache misses
I guess I should be happy I'm not completely out of food and have to go to the store, that would really be like having to go all the way to ram just to get something
So, in this analogy the cache misses are that I'm out of milk for my morning coffee, and then I'm out of yogurt for my breakfast, so now I'm cooking food in the morning and it feels like it's taking forever
