    By “optimizing” do you mean going through the source code and adding comments referring to Optimus Prime? Because that’s called “optimus priming” and we had a whole two hours about it in coding camp.

      “optimizing” is a portmenteau coming from “optical minimizing”. the technique involves not using glasses, so you can’t tell when your code is trash.
