If you'd like to see more of Amy's work or to reach out to collaborate, you can find her here. I’ve been hearing rumors about Mars College for years, and it sounded straight out of science fiction: artists, AI kids, and hippies building some kind of solarpunk utopia in the desert?

What I talk about when I talk about IRs

I have a lot of thoughts about the design of compiler intermediate representations (IRs). In this post I’m going to try and communicate some of those ideas and why I think they are important. The overarching idea is being able to make decisions with only local information. That comes in a couple of different flavors. We’ll assume that we’re compiling a method at a time, instead of a something more trace-like (tracing, tracelets, basic block versioning, etc). Control-flow graphs A function wi

Before the Cult TV Show, the Buffy Movie Proved How Fun Slaying Monsters Can Be

Buffy the Vampire Slayer may soon make a TV comeback with Sarah Michelle Gellar—and the cult-classic series will always be the most beloved version of Buffy’s story. But in 1992, five years prior to fans becoming obsessed with Sunnydale and the Scoobies, a different version of Buffy’s story hit the big screen. The same broad strokes are there; the script is by (now-disgraced) Buffy series creator Joss Whedon, and it follows a chipper blonde named Buffy saving the world from monsters. But it’s go
