There were a bunch of ports, like arm64, but with several bugs. So the maintainer removed all but x86_64, and then another group added risc64. From there arm64 can be tried again

BEGIN blocks execute at compile-time. require is just a wrapper to load a module at compile-time. When you want to use state, like openening a file for run-time, use INIT blocks instead. These are executed first before runtime, after compil

Oh my. The most important difference is that a-lists are sorted by order of insertion, hashtables not. That's why a-lists are used for symtabs, allowing shadowing of newer temporary dynamic symbols.

Perl5 had it before. Either by constant-folding, or by BEGIN blocks. Constant-folding just got watered down by the many dynamic evangelists in the decades after, that even C or C++ didn't enforce it properly. In perl5 is was watered do

Not better than a Kessler dyno. The best Formula 1 teams still use Kessler. You need the long axle to apply the power to. You never heard of them as they are only producing 30 a year.

I've got compiler jobs without ever touching LLVM. Even gcc has a better codebase and performance. If just its maintainers would behave as nice as the LLVM maintainers who are really nice. Eg with gcc you can write a jit in pure C. Wit

No. My company went with a so called better ISP because doing AI means transporting tons of image data up and down. But their peering was horrible. I couldn't update Ubuntu at all compared to fibre Vodafone at home. Took hours. Transpo

There's no monopoly, it is a cartel. Most big businesses in Germany operate in cartels to fuck the customer.

LLVM is certainly not a recommended way to start. That would be to start with a small lisp or ocaml compiler. There you have all the batteries included and the project would still be small enough.

I have a different view of them. For me, having implemented both in my object systems, composition is compile-time, early-bound, whilst inheritance is just another runtime indirection, late-bound. Composition needs more memory per class and

For the history nerds. The Eisbach wave was the world's first river wave. And is the fastest still. The second was the one in Montreal, Habitat 67. 1998. Bigger, wider, but a real big river. And also too many people. Third was ours, 19

I did a similar project, a typed perl. cperl. I could import most the modules, and did add types to some of the important modules. Eg testing was 2x faster. I needed typing patches for about 10% for most CPAN packages. A type is a contract,

Good collectors are language independent. Bad collectors like Mark & Sweep are just needed for stable extern pointers, like in ffi callbacks. All better languages use a modern copying collector, if they have enough memory. It's als
