Yep, rewrite it in Rust please. I hate having to pause for garbage collection every night.
That’s why there’s a sabbath
For me the Sabbath is a recompile with bug fixes. When I'm GCing every night, at least someone can ring me in an emergency. The phone is off for Sabbath.

And I'm not joking about the bugfixes. A day off of _everything_ is a great way to reflect on the past six days, and to learn from them. I'm certain that my ostensibly-six-day-week is more productive than my seven-day-week ever was.

The only reasonable substrate for this is Brainfuck.
I imagine many people here know the song "The Eternal Flame".

I’d definitely be a NullPointerException. I don’t want a programming language that I can’t type in ascii. Sorry, god. Limited to 255.
I personally have a lot of boilerplate that seems redundant.
