@swiftlang thanks for such a nice Saturday morning read! I liked the SAFETY comments hints practice, seems to fit quite well for llm-based code reviews, and I was curious about all the struct/copyable and other hints to optimize unnecessary costs around the code and its all covered in the post ^^

@swiftlang not even one of the languages I have interest in learning, but it's cool to see a real world project that was so resoundingly successful. How is it on various other architectures?
