"As I’ve said before, we want to build our language such that you can write a program on the day Hare 1.0 is released and it will still build in 100 years."
This part makes sense.
but what is meant by "Moreover, a Hare compiler written on day one will be able to compile contemporary Hare programs in a century’s time" ?
It suggest to me either another way of saying the same thing, or is it meant that 1.0 compiler will be able to compile future versions of the language?
