    Of all the facets of HN’s title autodestroy, I think removing “How” from titles is the worst one. I believe OP can edit it back in though.

    (I passed over this article thinking it was a “look how mysteriously smart the mysteriously smart compiler is” acticle, not a “here’s how the smarts in a compiler work” one.)

      Yes, there is a timeout to fix title "corrections" after submission, but apparently still not well known.

    for me is more interesting that Maxime Chevalier-Boisvert left shopify and is doing other stuff, who will carry on with zjit

      Max Bernstein is now leading the team. He's also an excellent compiler engineer.
