Good observations but a more accurate title would be common misconceptions about c/c++ compilers. I point this out because I think that there is a lot of room for compiler innovation that will come from developing new compilers for new languages and I don't want us to continue being anchored in the mistakes of the past.
- pizlonator 2y agoThe article has valid points that are specifically not about C++: - Javascript interpreters JIT at runtime because they don't know which paths are hot ahead of time - If you have a compiler, you don't need an interpreter And a bunch of other points that are also valid for non-C++ compilers. So, I think the title is accurate as is.
