Claiming super fast compile times with super fast runtimes faster than LLVM and the compiler is a single typescript file 6k characters long of AI slop. Jesus.
Glad to see a new release of Bend, fascinating cutting-edge stuff.
I had to look up "gambiarra": a Brazilian expression that means to use improvised methods to solve a problem with any avaiable material.
Totally understandable, I think you did the right thing by releasing early, even if it's still in rough shape, to get some public feedback. This forum can be a hit-or-miss, sometimes even great projects are not appreciated (and the opposite too). But I imagine some people are in the target audience who will see the project and actually explore the language, and follow along with its development.
I’m just looking at it for the first time myself, but isn’t the compiler in https://github.com/bendlang/bend/blob/main/bend2/comp.ts ?

the compiler is in comp.ts, alongside the runtime
it is not a pretty file and it has a lot of gambiarra and AI slop for now
if you want to read something worthy, read the kernel (bend.ts)
