Really good article describing how to parse code from a custom language, create an ast, generate assembly and execute it in memory for a just in time calculator in V https://l-m.dev/cs/jitcalc/ #vlang #jit #ast

Some more KAP musings
After having migrated to the new fork syntax, I now have another idea.
Currently, integer maths is always 64-bit, with wraparound overflow (because that's what the JVM does by default). For a language that is kinda oriented towards maths, that's pretty ugly.
I'm considering implementing support for bignums, in order to eliminate integer overflows. Doing so will make the behaviours of integers similar to Lisp, which is good (Lisp has, after all, the best numeric tower of any programming language, and this would make KAP almost on par with it).
However...
It would have a negative impact on performance. I don't know how much, but definitely measurable.
On the other hand, no one would care...
There are no actual users of KAP anyway, and I'm not sure that'll ever change.
If you are looking for performance, kap is already slower than any performance-oriented language.
No matter how slow I make kap, it'll still be faster than Python, which people seems to happily by using.
If I were to do this, I would also need to integrate just with bignums on the JVM, but also find a bignum library for JS (I have't researched this) as well as learning how to use GMP, since KAP can compile to JS and native as well.

The attack on #NordStream was a terrible attack on European vital infrastructure, it was an act of Environmental Terrorism - A disastrous release of #Methane - Why is the #EU showing so little interest in finding out who did it.? Are they afraid that they won't like the answer..?

Q: can human civilization survive thermonuclear war?
A: It is highly unlikely that human civilization would be able to survive a thermonuclear war. The destructive power of these weapons is vast, and a global thermonuclear war would have devastating effects on the planet. The intense heat and radiation generated by thermonuclear explosions would likely cause widespread damage to the environment and infrastructure, leading to the collapse of human civilization as we know it. Additionally, the radioactive fallout from a thermonuclear war would make large areas of the planet uninhabitable for many years, potentially permanently.
