<p>&quot;Everyone should learn to code&quot; worked *so well* for the past 15 years, don&#39;t really see anything going wrong here.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mcc" class="u-url mention">@<span>mcc</span></a></span> Hotspot isn&#39;t really a stack machine. *Java bytecode* is written for a stack machine, as is Wasm machine code, which works out well because it&#39;s compact: you don&#39;t encode (almost) any temporary indices, like you would have in LLVM</p><p>the moment you load it, you transform it into a register representation in memory. not literally every implementation does it, but most do not actually execute it with a data stack</p>

<p>So. Creeping along with this. I am posting tihs from a bus.</p><p>Learned some more about &quot;textual WASM&quot;. Two things I learned. One. It is LISP but also it is Forth. You write it as structurally an S-expression but the commands you write in that S-expression are, as it happens, instructions to a stack machine. This surprised me, but apparently Hotspot was a stack machine, as was the C# CLR as it was based on Hotspot, as is wasm because it was based on… Hotspot. Apparently this works well for JIT.</p>

It is awesome! It looks great, plays well, and was easy to setup. Outside of the Nebulon being an original untextured model, the texture/model pack addon, new lighting, and other enhancements are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing!</p>

<p>After the IPL auction, kid and I gave up hope on RCB for this year. But 4-5 games in started to realize what an exremely cleverly designed team this is. Team GMs are still not stars in India, but they will soon be: RCB&#39;s GM was clearly their MVP, their Theo Epstein.</p>

<p>Who named it PyTorch and not slop.py</p>
