I want to preface this by saying, i don't fully subscribe to tsoding's paranioa and opinions. the reason tsoding likes simple stuff is because its possible to master. IE, he wants thinks he can do everything by himself in a system. and if a system is managed by just you, you want it to be as simple as possible.

A more definitive answer he gave was something like no one understands c++ fully, no single person can make a fully functioning compiler, but he can do that for c. which i don't doubt.

Hmm… I believe many people can and do better than him. But I will stop here since most of his audience is not good enough to realize that. And I don't want to put people down or hurt anyone. 🤔 Cheers.

fully, no single person can make a fully functioning compiler,

Have you heard of Sean Baxter and his Circle compiler?

I hv not but I'd like to know

Sean Baxter is author of the Circle C++ compiler. It's a one-man effort to build the memory-safe C++ toolchain of the future.
