Guess we'll have to wait for the proliferation of a different architecture to encounter this one :)
- 0xffff2 8y agoDifferent architectures like ARM? Plenty of code will only ever run on an x86 chip, but a non-trivial amount will run on x86 and ARM at some point. I've certainly been bitten by this before.
- ben-schaaf 8y agoSure, but my point is that both Sublime products only support x86 currently. There's likely a fair amount of other stuff that would break if we ported to ARM.
- 0xffff2 8y agoDidn't realize who I was replying to. Oops. If you're confident that the code is going to stay x86 only then sure. Personally I've found my code has an annoying habit of growing legs and moving to other projects, often without my knowledge until much later. Of course when this happens the person doing it usually has little regard for any assumptions I made when writing the original code.
