Stop platforming this fascist ideologist: https://world.hey.com/dhh/as-i-remember-london-e7d38e64

You're breaking the site guidelines by posting the same off topic comment on anything that involves DHH.

"As I Remember London" and DHH aren't "fascist." Repeating it multiple times doesn't make it true.

You ... Are quite incoherent with your messaging xD

Don't confuse your poor reading comprehension with incoherence.

Hahahahahahahaha what are you, five years old? I understand pretty well what you say and why.

Weird flex getting triggered over a supposed five year old.

Flex? Do you know what it means?

You apparently don't.

This is complete slop.

It doesn't matter how highly optimised it is, it is slop.

And DHH doesn't even know what he is doing. In this PR he now removed portability (and adding it back after he did the first pass of assembly and someone told him the mistake)

The end result in assembly isn't even faster than the Rust version also rolled in slop.

As they say, this is essentially polishing a turd and rolling it around in glitter, yet it still came from the gutter.
