I assume this is a sort of poem about the programming language Julia...

I read a good way down thinking this was some kind of highly metaphorical blog post about the programming language Julia

I clicked on it because I thought it was about the programming language Julia. I'm still not fully sure what Julia here actually is.

The narrative style reminds me of the novel-game Caves of Qud. Very well done.

I have a recording of le temps des cerises by Charles Trenet, which I picked up after hearing his music on a movie soundtrack. Anyway, this is a song one could imagine playing in the void, echoing the end of everything. A little melancholy, a little sweet. Pairs will with fractals.
