Yeah that's not great. It's easy to be faster than go if you haven't thought about memory management yet. I bet go with GOGC=off is faster than plain go too.

That would mean no language can ever be considered safe, because any language can emit bytes to a file that will later be executed.

GitHub is meant for developers. Plenty of OSS has forums or Zulip/Discord chats for ordinary users to get support in a more casual way. Sometimes not, but there's just as much closed source software with poor support too.

SISC is there because it's not notable, so the busybodies haven't even noticed the page exists. Odin, however, is notable, and that put it on their radar as a target for attacking its notability.

For your specific case, even a simple `[9][9]u16` might perform better (where you make use of nine bits in each u16). For each entry, the nine mask bits would be in the same bit positions, so the compiler won't have to do a bunch of sh
