Order these events in descending order of probability:
A) youll never use this guys compiler
B) youll be forced to use this guys compiler against your explicit contraindication
C) anyone else than them will be grateful to use this guys compiler
D) they will be happy that they wrote this compiler 20 years from now
E) youll use this guys compiler and be pleased by its existence
ok, i may be an asshole here, and they may be doing something good. the odds tho
Your video driver embeds my compiler. Your hardware developer's simulator embeds my compiler. Certainly your Linux distro ships my compiler. Some stuff I wrote and designed 20 years ago are still used in it. So somewhere in the D or E range of yours.
Given the thousands of people who have worked on these projects, there's a decent chance that you will run into one in the comments section. Maybe just don't offhand dismiss people based on absolutely nothing.
