    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.)

      I think it'd fine having it be however broken it currently is as long as the correction was checked by whoever is submitting the entry before it gets published.

      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.

    curious if zjit will be ready to be default over yjit next ruby release. hope so!
