Yes, it's unrelated. The author says "The central notion of JIT is a well-defined intermediate language called Medium Internal Representation, or MIR. You can find the name in Steven Muchnik’s famous book “Advanced Compiler Design and Implementation.” The Rust team also uses this term for a Rust intermediate language. Still, I decided to use the same name because I like it: MIR means “peace” and “world” in Russian." in https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2020/01/20/mir-a-lightweight-jit-compiler-project/ https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2020/01/20/mir-a-lightwei...
