"Rome was not built in one day": Mistakes, debugging, fixing MUST happen.
And it is going to hurt. To get rid of the plague of optimizing compilers, I am willing to pay that price.
And instead of having to to fix assembly code generation in those ultra-complex compilers, it is much more reasonable to hook in an assembler which is beyond orders of magnitude saner than dealing with any optimizing compilers.
- GeorgeTirebiter 3y agoWould love it you would expand more. "Mistakes, debugging, fixing" ? 'plague' of optimizing compilers? Who really cares what they do, as long as the code it produces executes the abstract machine that the compiled language provides? If you're saying optimizing compilers are broken, that's different. I fully expect AI to be bolted on to optimizing compilers - especially for global optimization - that is going to be mind-blowing when it works error-free.

- GeorgeTirebiter 3y agoIt's not an issue of 'solving' arbitrarily large np-complete problems; it's solving the required problems (e.g. register usage across multiple function calls) better than today's compilers. And, AI will for sure do that.
