    ToastStunt is an actively developed fork of Stunt which is a fork of LambdaMOO. It's extended a lot of what LambdaMOO offered via patches, as well as adding a lot of new and much needed stuff. Active Discord community as well. And several large MOOs are running it instead of LambdaMOO these days.

    ToastStunt is a fork of Stunt which is a fork of LambdaMOO. ToastStunt adds a bunch of features and is under active development. I worked with the knowledgeable folx on the ToastStunt Discord and the primary devs, to update the classic LambdaMOO Programmers Guide for ToastStunt.
  • Do all muds use insecure connections?

    TLS support was recently added to ToastStunt, so any MOOs running that have the option. The biggest that come to mind are Miriani and ChatMUD. They also use argon2id for password hashing rather than the usual crypt(), if that sort of thing is important to you.

    MUDs (MOOs specifically) were super formative for me. Learned to code from playing with LambdaMOO and helping develop Sindome (www.sindome.org)

  • Optimizing an old interpreted language: where to begin?
    3 projects | /r/Compilers | 4 May 2021
    However, improving the interpreter is going to be very tricky as the bytecode is dynamically typed, so you can't tell at compile time whether a+b is going to do an integer addition, float addition, string concatenation, etc --- you have to test the object types at run time. See the implementation here: https://github.com/toddsundsted/stunt/blob/a4158f5835f1beb9d754c92fd5b3a137e459aabf/execute.cc#L1272 This means that unless you're willing to do sophisticated run-time analysis inside the interpreter, a JIT is going to be very hard.
