JIT Compiling Code in 5μs - malisper.me

kept by lianhuang aug 20

The article demonstrates a Rust copy‑and‑patch JIT compiler that compiles regexes in ~5µs, matching handwritten speed and enabling per‑query JIT in databases.

You can just choose how many bugs you want now
AI coding makes bug discovery cheap, letting teams decide how many bugs to tolerate, while fixing them remains costly and complex.

Fibs and Fibbonacci - is LOGOS faster than Zig?
LOGOS is not the fastest language; its speed claims rely on toy benchmarks, non‑idiomatic comparisons, and a benchmark bug that makes it slower than Zig after correction.

What's the best programming language for coding agents?
Dan Luu's empirical tests with LLMs on Zstd and Pandoc implementations show that language popularity weakly correlates with better outcomes, but claims about dynamic or token-efficient languages being superior for coding agents do not hold across non-trivial tasks.
