That makes sense. It also seems like this uses a lot more dependencies and tiers of compilation whereas Porforr is trying to do everything from scratch.

That explains why:

- the architecture is idiotic.

- they have zero credible perf numbers.

I plan to benchmark it using generally accepted methods.

Porffor makes careful trade offs that make sense and is benchmarked in a way that I can believe.

Christ. Imagine if bridges, skyscrapers, dams, cars, airplanes were designed and built like that.

I vibeslopped thousands of pages of blueprints, nobody reviewed them, but another team of digital monkeys with the intellect of an ant have already built the bridge, and it seems to not have collapsed yet, so we're already directing traffic there.

I can't imagine actual engineers feeling anything but deepest contempt for this industry.
