This place is like an ocean of anime nostalgia with waves turning up on a beach every now and then.

It's funny how it's literally a naval ship but in space.

I hate URL shorteners. They make it harder to see what the destination page is about.

Space Battleship Yamato 2199 was an interesting remake of the original. Sci-fi ship action. #anime

Crude market research round.

Would you like to see an instance which has free / sexual expression minus shitposters (I think you know what I mean)? #anime @anime

At this point, I feel like I'm committing some sort of sin, if I use a dynamic type.

I could write a fedi software in assembly for the memes, lol. Nah.

Other than writing it in Python (isn't that a bit boring?), I don't see a whole lot of interesting avenues to go in either.

It's probably still more efficient than the higher level languages.

Is table level compression popular on the fediverse?

I should make a joke about how back in the day, only low level languages had a compiler.

Now, every web application is essentially compiled, lol.

Hmm... If I was to write an instance, I could use C++, or perhaps, Go.

Though if it was Go, I would have to use a fair bit of off-heap memory.

The garbage collector can be fairly resource intensive (from what I remember, it scans every pointer on the heap). That was the reason Discord abandoned it for another language in one area.

Off-cheap memory would use something like a mmap syscall and unsafe to cast memory back and forth.
