>Compilation time

I remember part of the selling point of LLVM during its early stage was compilation time being so much faster than GCC.

LLVM started about 15 years after GCC. Considering LLVM is 23 years old already. I wonder if something new again will pop up.

LLVM is actually really really good at what it does (compiling c/c++ code). Not perfect, but good enough that it would take tens of thousands of competent man hours to match it

"Here’s a real example: a user signs in with an email and password. That flow touches three services, each with a single responsibility:

EmailService::Normalizer strips and downcases the email UserService::Authenticator checks credentials SessionService::Creator creates a session"

Don't know how to say this without sounding arrogant. WTF?

What are you doing to make sure Tilde does not end up like this?
