  You don't need to use assembly for high performance web app when you can just use Go.

    You don't, but it's so much cooler when you do! Not everything needs to be a beige utilitarian module optimized for business consumption. I didn't need to implement an Intel RDRAND streamer in C and assembler, but it was a ton of fun: https://github.com/ehbar/rdrand-stream https://github.com/ehbar/rdrand-stream OP, I really liked this project. Kudos for publishing it!

      Woah, that's really cool! I'm glad you did that even if you didn't need to. I honestly think everyone needs to write more assembly, because it's so much cooler.
