After only a few minutes trying out the compiler, I was exhilarated—the machine could generate machine code faster than I ever could by hand!

@dysfun you gotta download the latest version bro, autovectorization is actually good now, I swear
@joe like yes it was so bad that i had to implement dynamic feature detection and write several specialisations by hand, but you don't understand - this is the future

@joe LLM is suspiciously similar to LLVM

@joe "i gave it
-O3 -funroll-loops -funroll-all-loops -fuck-debugging -loland i can only describe the code it generated as 'slop'" -

@joe 67 compilers, directly into the codebase? you will surely not regret 67 compilers

@joe I presented the type checker with a mathematical proof of its own sentience and it said “expression cannot be type checked in reasonable time.” It simply refused to compile my code. This proves beyond a reasonable doubt that it had conscious free will

@joe @lapcatsoftware just one more optimization pass bro

@joe the collective noun is "an optimization of compilers"

@joe we did this at twitter for scala but google decided to kill it

@joe Not a joke - compilers were considered AI research in the 1960s for pretty much that reason.
Phil Wadler: "I do programming language design. This used to be considered artificial intelligence, but then we learned how to do it properly. AI is the name for the parts of Computer Science where we don't understand what we're doing yet."

@dotstdy @joe @lapcatsoftware what if IR, but Markdown?
