I know about all this — I actually began implementing my own JVM language a few days ago. I know Android uses Dalvik btw. But I guess a lot of people can use this info; infodump is always good. I do that.
btw I actually have messed around with libgcc-jit and I think at least on x86, it makes zero difference. I once did a test:
– Find /e/ with MAWK -> 0.9s – Find /e/ with JAWK -> 50s.
No shit! It’s seriously slow.
Now compare this with go-awk: 19s.
Go has reference counting and heap etc, basically a ‘compiled VM’. I think if you want fast code, ditch runtime.
I think that happens when app developers learn2optimize. Stop using interpreted bytecode languages on small processors!
My man we have UNIX because PDP-11 was expensive!
He’s dumb, but unlike dumb politicians who say retarded shit and their fans play it out as ‘haha they’re being retarded to troll you!’ — this retardation cannot be denied when hard science is at play. I’m not saying political science is not real, but just like front end development, you don’t need a degree in it to be even the highest-ranked member of a political system (jk about front end, I myself am a drop out — 3 semesters :D ). What I basically mean is, for those with even basic understanding of his ventures, we all see the emperor with no clothes on, and his fans cannot really do the same thing they do to a stupid politician and play it out as ‘trolling’.
Man this is nice! Thanks.
Edit: Takes a bit slower than Kitty to zoom though. Slower than Alacritty too. But it looks ‘slicker’ in general.
