Personnel
gollark: What if you make an optimizing interpreter which detects common programs and then just runs efficient implementations of them?
gollark: osmarks.tk didn't, though.
gollark: Go's assembly thing is actually used to write a bunch of internal things. Java/Python bytecode is, as far as I know, just a convenient mid-level representation.
gollark: > more like Go awayindeed.
gollark: Also, I think making up a dedicated assembly thing is basically the *point* of asm2bf, instead of some bizarre implementation detail like in Go.
