It is nuts to have a dev board that is constrained as the final device. You should have had an additional serial port and 8x as much flash, it would have solved your problem immediately. It is even better to do the bulk of the dev inside of

That sucks, but feels good to have solved it. This is why it is important to have portable build environments. And ECC and checksumming file systems.

We agree on a lot of things, but QBE is off the table. Complexity and kloc are loosely correlated. Cranelift and libfirm are of equivalent size while Cranelift is in Rust and has wonderful compiler engineers working on it. https:/&#x2

9x larger in LoC, 50x larger in comments. I had a wall of supporting tokei but decided against it, but the short of it is, LLVM is phenomenally massive, and libfirm at 135kloc and 35kloc of comments is but a raindrop that is in the 15Mloc+

But you do get perfect backward compatibility. If you want to opt-in to the bug fix, you use a newer version of the function. I recall there being a blog post, maybe by Joe Armstrong in which he advocated for having version numbers in fun

QBE is ... problematic. The source has no comments, single letter variable names. It is not written to be extended by anyone else other than the author. I would recommend libfirm over QBE by at least 10km. https://libfirm.github.
