I used play around with assembly language on a TRS-80. That was waaaay faster than python on 2.5 GHz multi core modern machine. Kind of cool.

Ah, the fun of copying the Mandelbrot code from the book, running the program, and waiting only 16 hours for the image to finish. Fun times!

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !nominativedeterminism@feddit.uk
