I'm not sure it's realistic to expect a safety focused compiler to compete with one that doesn't offer those checks. We should aspire to make it as fast but in the short term a slower compiler in exchange for less CVEs and ra

I was thinking Visual Studio, fired up 2008 on a VM with minimal specs the other day and it's amazing how fast it used to be. Admittedly I know WPF needs good graphics hardware which I'm sure Citrix is not providing. I know we nee

Shame it doesn't actually protect you, this startup [1] had a spending limit and they racked up charges so fast even Google's own billing system couldn't keep up. In typical Google fashion it's luck of the draw if you ge
