   I'm in the middle of building LLVM 15 from scratch for the 11th time today, and I have 2 more to go until I can start another CI run.

   How's your day going? ?

     @andrewrk@mastodon.social thinking about the 7th draft of my "minimal set of instructions to start distro development"
     llvm and gnu both give me nightmares

     @fedor@mastodon.gamedev.place @andrewrk@mastodon.social
     not particularly useful, sorry
     cproc isn't even self-hosting, let alone capable of self-hosting an entire distro
     tcc would have been closer but still not that useful besides as a boostrap target via gcc4 which...
     is probably more pain than it's worth

     @andrewrk @tost mastodon mess up who you really really to haha

     was not thinking of an alternative for zig!

     QBE might be relevant to @tost desire to build something from scratch without touching llvm/gnu

     @fedor @tost it's not really an alternative, it can't even output object files

     @tost @andrewrk not sure if this is relevant to your problem, but check out QBE: https://c9x.me/compile/, a great alternative to LLVM/GNU
