gollark: Assembly is obviously better for... I don't know, when you actually need to implement interrupt handlers or something, or when you have a small bit of computing which needs to be run as fast as possible, but most practical stuff is *not* that.
gollark: Actually, it might be better to write it as OpenCL if it parallelizes well enough to run on GPUs.
gollark: It would probably still be somewhat slower, but more maintainable and easy to read/write.
gollark: You can use intrinsics for SIMD stuff in it.
gollark: I'd probably use Rust or something.
