cfbolz changed the topic of #pypy to: #pypy PyPy, the flexible snake https://pypy.org | IRC logs: https://quodlibet.duckdns.org/irc/pypy/latest.log.html#irc-end and https://libera.irclog.whitequark.org/pypy | the pypy angle is to shrug and copy the implementation of CPython as closely as possible, and staying out of design decisions

<cfbolz> no, but he still has a point. basically we need existing binaries to bootstrap, which is a problem on new hardware architectures. so on new hardware we need to first build an unmaintained and potentially annoying CPython 2.7 version, then build the first pypy2. from then on we're ok
<lazka> Compile py2 to wasm like zig? :P https://ziglang.org/news/goodbye-cpp/
<cfbolz> heh, yes, there are options
<cfbolz> but it sounds like "hoops" indeed
<mgorny> oh wow, zig changing its internal design again? never gets boring!
