This already happened in the Kagyu lineage of Buddhism. Chinese installed their own candidate of 17th Karmapa and claimed he's the right one for over two decades, until he embarassed himself a bit too much. The original one continues

So, was he rejected by an automated system or did he go thru seven interviews, as other commenters say?

Oh yeah, back in the late 80s we (for some finite and not so big values of "we") were counting MOS6502/6510 cycles to catch the electron beam on a display and turn on some nice/nasty viaual effects. Tell me "fast&qu

Certain tools, or rather: ecosystems encourage overengineering and overhyping more than others.

It is not random. All the mentioned problems come from a single source.

So, if my sentence is rude, and "take anything Linus says about compilers with a grain of salt" isn't, then I definitely quit this discussion.

Maybe Linus by writing kernels, not compilers, has even more to say, because his use-case is much more practical than anything that compiler designers could imagine.

That's fair. My reply was in a hurry. I should have said, "there's syncthing, but I like this&that about your project", for which I didn't have time. So, the old saying, better to stay silent than to say somethi

While I can understand (while disagreeing) why my comment was downvoted, it is beyond my comprehension why it was in addition _flagged_. I expressed my view on usefulness of one's effort and I barely scratched the surface. Nothing in m

But the point is, the author didn't know about Syncthing. And he's got a few of things to solve that Syncting already has. (Doesn't need to mimic all things Syncthing has, of course). I am all for implementing something own w

The article is fine and has a lot of good points, but tries to avoid the main issue like a plague. So I will speak it here: The slowness comes mainly from LLVM.

Any effort to get rid of the Electron bloat is great.
