Practical, yes.

I am going back to 5 year old notes on instruction scheduling and using the same code and algorithms to deliver targeted advertisement on the net.

As a former compiler junkie that sounds interesting, can you elaborate?

[Edit: Sorry man, this is my bread and butter. Excitement got into my head and I barfed out a few things I should have left out.

I hope I don't come across as rude and evasive if I said "sorry, can't give any more info; just think hard about it" :-) ]
