Their words
And that kind of compiling of information about the materials is something other fields do that we don't do. An analogy that I would think of in software would be something like a 500-page book on how to version an API.

@kees Actually you're probably the right person to ask: For unrelated reasons, I've noticed that -fzero-call-used-regs triggers before indirect tail calls, but *not* computed gotos, despite both compiling into similar indirect `jmp`s. Should those be made consistent? Do we worry about indirect `jmp`s being useful ROP gadgets? It seems clear they *could* be, but maybe in practice they're not actually helpful? Example:

Their words
I think to have a language that feels this way you have to have a type system. That's where it all starts.

Nothing matches.
What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
