  • What instructions are needed for a language vm

    I have been working on my own VM (and language) as well and I decided to have only a small set of instructions that I wanted. I finalized on ~25 instructions. You can check them out here - https://github.com/Feral-Lang/Feral/blob/master/include/VM/OpCodes.hpp

  • Ask HN: What's the best source code you've read?
    46 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 10 Sep 2022
    Eye-opening but probably not "best": the Nullsoft Installer, circa 2002 (https://github.com/kichik/nsis). Its goal, besides being an installer, was to produce a small binary. So the source was remarkably pithy, which taught me a lot about being direct and to-the-point rather than aiming for beautiful abstractions or reusability.

    Similar with Notch's Left4KDead, which implemented a fun zombie game for a Java small-code competition. A mirror of the original source is here (https://github.com/codingcampbell/Left-4k-Dead). I rewrote it in JavaScript as a Chrome App, in the process refactoring for readability (and sacrificing some of the code's beauty). https://github.com/sowbug/ChromeLeft4kDead
