I didn't enjoy using JJ for the first day or two until I discovered jjui, now I do probably 95% of my interactions with jj through jjui.

You're right, but loads of times I just left that there because I probably did something more involved in the map that I ended up deleting later without realising.
This sounds like the kind of situation where the LSP could suggest the simpler code, I'll see if there's an issue for it already and suggest it if not.
Last time I checked I did not agree to be bombarded with ads and have all my data tracked after paying 100+ for a piece of software...
You kinda did...

They didn't say they were proud, plus their account got banned so they were punished appropriately, plus... It's just Neopets...

I don’t understand how to work with the intermediate language in such a back-to-front approach, wouldn’t you need to know in advance what pass to implement next so that the input to the current pass matches the output of your next, unimplemented, pass? To me, it seems like the contract is reversed
No, because the intermediate language of the previous step is just the target of the next step, and the target can be anything
E.g. when JavaScript was designed, they didn't need to know that typescript would be invented to know how JavaScript would look.
Interested to try this and compare with SPy: https://antocuni.eu/2025/10/29/inside-spy-part-1-motivations...

A general purpose language should be suitable to writing its own compiler. If it's to slow for that, what's the point?
A language can be suitable for writing a compiler, but if there is another language that's 10x faster that's also suitable, then you're losing out on a lot of compilation speed for no reason.
Dog-fooding a language by writing a compiler in it can lead to the designers adding language features to make compiler development easier, even if they detract from the design of the language for the 99% of users who aren't writing a compiler.
Yeah but then don't say that SPy is a (interpreter and) compiler in the first place? Just say it's a interpreter.
You can think of it like this:
SPy is a compiler. SPy is not a compiler for OCaml. SPy is not a compiler for COBOL. SPy is not a compiler for Python.
