I really like this slide as a reminder for not prematurely optimizing, in particular because we often fall into the trap of over-optimizing sections of our application code that might not even be touched that often, or even worse, replaced by a new implementation after not too long of a time. All that time spent optimizing on that particular piece of code could have been very well spent on other things more useful.
