Building a web server in aarch64 assembly to give my life (a lack of) meaning | Hacker News

Hacker News discussed a web server project written in aarch64 assembly, drawing interest from low-level performance enthusiasts.

Commenters debated where assembly is practical, with some seeing value in embedded systems like Raspberry Pi and less in desktop software.

The thread also turned into a submission dispute, as one user said an earlier post seemed to be overwritten by a later link.

Overall, the discussion highlighted both the appeal and the limits of assembly for real-world software.
