Compiler for the B Programming Language

Hate to see Tsoding was using Rust for this. Rust is as far removed from recreational programming than any other language.

		I think Rust is quite a recreational language. The least recreational languages are probably like Java,C#

Fun to see that it implements codegen for Uxn :)

Always nice to see more B. Here's mine: https://github.com/aap/b

Interesting that this is in a self-developed subset/dialect of Rust called Crust which attempts to treat it as a better C, using unsafe everywhere among other things.

That's a little bit interesting. It remains then a C-like language with generics, and that sounds a lot more fun than regular C. I don't yet understand the point of avoiding references or libstd, though.

Avoiding references means avoiding the borrow checker, and I don't think you can use much of stdlib if you avoid references...

		At the beginning of one of his videos on Crust, he's trying to avoid stdlib exactly for that reason.

Nice, but it really needs to be written in B and self-hosted.

This is the most tsoding thing possible.

I have tsoding fatigue at this point. BTW are you the DiabloD3 from freenode/#sdl like 25 years ago?

		Yep, it is me.
