This document explains how I would implement an SSA-based compiler if I was writing one today.

This document is intentionally opinionated. It just tells you how I would do it. This document is intended for anyone who has read about SSA and understands the concept, but is confused about how exactly to put it into practice. If you're that person, then I'm here to show you a way to do it that works well for me. If you're looking for a review of other ways to do it, I recommend this post.

My approach works well when implementing the compiler in any language that easily permits cyclic mutable data structures. I know from experience that it'll work great in C++, C#, or Java. The memory management of this approach is simple (and I'll explain it), so you won't have to stress about use after frees.

I like my approach because it leads to an ergonomic API by minimizing the amount of special cases you have to worry about. Most of the compiler is analyses and transformations ov

hi, i'm daniel. i'm a 15-year-old high school junior. in my free time, i hack billion dollar companies and build cool stuff.

3 months ago, I discovered a unique 0-click deanonymization attack that allows an attacker to grab the location of any target within a 250 mile radius. With a vulnerable app installed on a target's phone (or as a background application on their laptop), an attacker can send a malicious payload and deanonymize you within seconds--and you wouldn't even know.

I'm publishing this writeup and research as a warning, especially for journalists, activists, and hackers, about this type of undetectable attack. Hundreds of applications are vulnerable, including some of the most popular apps in the world: Signal, Discord, Twitter/X, and others. Here's how it works:

By the numbers, Cloudflare is easily the most popular CDN on the market. It beats out competitors such as Sucuri, Amazon CloudFront, Akamai, and Fastly. In 2019, a major Cloudflare outage k

Note to readers: This document is an early draft of a model for memory-safe references that I've been working on for the last ~2 years. While I think it is quite promising, the design is unfinished. The "regions" that I present in this document have not been given a formal semantics, and I have not explained where they originate from. My goal is merely to convince you that the design is promising, and that if seen to completion, it would advance the frontier of zero-cost memory safety.

Update March 2025: I am working on a newer version of this proposal, that aims to simplify the model substantially. When I have finished that proposal, I will put a link here.

Update August 2025: Verdagon has written an awesome blog post that explains this proposal at a high level. I recommend you check it out!

Abstract

In this document, I present a novel model for memory-safe references that aims to significantly improve upon the Rust-inspired model that Mojo c

Learnings from ts-blank-space

tags: TypeScript, type erasure, type stripping

ts-blank-space

As part of my work on the JavaScript Tooling team at Bloomberg I have implemented an experimental (not yet used in production) package to transform TypeScript into JavaScript using a somewhat novel approach.

This is a description of what I learned from implementing the idea. The source code will be open sourced soon - it just needs some regular IP approval.
