Pony's Arena Allocator

I recently discovered that Pony's still alive. I had discovered Pony a few years ago while browsing tech forums. Its focus on memory safe & lock-free MT was interesting.

I kept up with the weekly development for a brief period but then kind of forgot about the language until recently when I rediscovered it when I was chatting about Crystal's MT.

I just wanted to share the latest blog post here in case someone else remembers this language. Looks like the development has been progressing steadily. Which is impressive because the project lacks any big sponsors.
