blake shaw 🇵🇸Totally, and the #nanopass framework is a joy to use. While I'm starting to get interested in #LLVM, primarily because the learning resources are immense, I'm not sure why anyone would choose it except for very low-level matters, or targeting something like SPIRV.
If #Grothendieck were a programmer he would have been a #lisp hacker. His advice to construct simplified theories to interpret the problem at hand has deep #nanopass and #LanguageOrientedProgramming vibes.
