At this level of meta, is the distinction between heap and stack real?
I’d love to see an SSA portable assembly designed to be written by humans with a top notch macro system to get something that has this much higher degree of correspondence from what you write to the assembly while still being portable.
Yeah, you get what I’d like to see. I’d really like to see a serious attempt at it!
The distinction is real because one is used for sequential allocation and other random allocation which I think is necessary?… At least necessary to a degree for other things people need to achieve. But also there is literal hardware for navigating “the stack” via stack register.

Well, it’s been a while since I mentioned my project here, so: https://github.com/akkartik/mu
I was going to link your project in the piece originally :) I will!
