The MySQL protocol is a lot saner and easier to implement than the pgsql one. I can imagine thats a factor? Once connected the sql dialect matters really little
Curiously if you ask if they would consider properly supporting notifications from the mobile web version then the answer is always no. Pwa would be perfectly fine but its crippled on Zulip
I'm trying to write a drop in LLVM codegen replacement, ie something that takes bitcode (Which I already have) and generates x86_64, arm, object files etc. Back story: I've done compilers for most of my professional life but never did the actual native code generation myself, always using .net, java or llvm to do that part.
As a fun project, as I already had code to generate llvm bitcode from .NET, I now do mem2reg (convert stack spots to SSA registers), dead code elimination, constant folding and other small optimizations. That part now works, and I managed to create a simple x86_64 coff object file (with everything needed to link to it, including pdata, xdata) that returns the "max" value for a given integer.
That is about all that works for now, and I don't get to spend much time on it, but the end goal is to have a "good enough" codegenerator for non optimized cases, that could potentially be faster than llvm (to emit). The primary goal is to learn how to do this though :)
