<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@tef" class="u-url mention">@<span>tef</span></a></span> glad to be of service. do you feel more fulfilled now that you wrote a self-righteous rant? i presume no since you keep doing it every week or so</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mcc" class="u-url mention">@<span>mcc</span></a></span> that sounds... pointless and/or not really feasible</p><p>LLVM is one of the worst picks for a GC language</p>

<p>Also I still think we should just make a typescript frontend for llvm</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@tef" class="u-url mention">@<span>tef</span></a></span> yep! i think that is a reasonable position to have.</p>

<p>if i said &quot;i think this feature outweighs the benefits of a 10x performance speed up&quot; you&#39;d all be rolling me over hot coals to justify it</p><p>on the other hand, it&#39;s weird that &quot;we got a 10x speedup&quot; isn&#39;t being met with &quot;wow, nice&quot;</p><p>the open source addled brains are saying stuff like &quot;not in the way i wanted. in fact, i would be happier with making everyone&#39;s code 10x slower in order that my personal edge case is met&quot;</p>
