Amy good alternative to jellyfin/emby/plex?
https://github.com/Dusk-Labs/dim might be your solution. Listed on awesome self hosted.

Any media server just for video play and remember last watched folder with transcoding?
Dim is simple media server You can look at. Dim

Help building a NAS + Media server
Someone recently told me about this one, too. https://github.com/Dusk-Labs/dim
- What would you rewrite in Rust?

Linus says and I agree plex better shape up or people will leave.
Anyway, there is a growing number of potential competitors such as dim and Olaris Media Server but as of right now there isn't an alternative that I would consider to be equal to plex, however I think we're getting close, it might be another year maybe two before we see any real competition, it mostly depends on how fast the alternatives can be developed.
- Opensource alternative to plex?

Ask HN: What was the best software that you used during 2022?
I've been amassing a library which I've exposed to some family members via Tailscale
Dim (https://github.com/Dusk-Labs/dim) is also a decent shout.

JellyFin from a Plex user's perspective
From Jellyfin to Olaris and even DIM, there is a rise in media server options, one day soon Plex will have a serious competitor and I can see a lot of people, myself included, moving to one of these competitors.

Stack-based array-friendly static-typed proof of concept
Yes, unless there's another language I'm unfamiliar that shares the name. But the inspiration and some core ideas came from Porth: https://gitlab.com/tsoding/porth
- Porth, it's like Forth but in Python

Stack machines for compilers
Here's an interesting solution: in the language Porth which was inspired by forth (but takes some drastically different choices), there's an option to create separate scored bindings, which can either consume items from the top of the stack, or duplicate them, leading to some very slick solutions to the problem of limited access to the stack.

How to build a language mode from scratch?
I personally haven't done that, but a very simple example, that I can think of is this one: porth-mode.el. The minor-mode doesen't do much, but maybe it helps understand the basic concepts.
-
Compiling via Forth?
You might want to look into Porth; IMO RPN doesn't have to be hard to read, Forth is just really terse and not very modern.
-
single pass compilers (basic questions)
I believe Tsodings - Porth is a single pass compiler. Currently in development - it has some great vlogs and is also self hosting. He's recently said that re-implementing Porth straight up has become an issue for him - so please just take inspiration only. I suspect a concatenative language is quite a natural fit for a single pass compiler.
-
Why hasn't anyone made a compiler for Python yet?
Tsoding did with his porth. Original conpiler written in python then reimplemented in porthq https://gitlab.com/tsoding/porth
What are some alternatives?
