If you give an engineer an architecture, he's going to ask for a compiler.

1. Bunch of code to [re]learn powerpc assembly.
2. LLVM e200z4 backend.
3. ????
4. Profit.

Example Description

• Lets do some basic math.

Why DevOps?

• Smaller code changes are simpler (more atomic) and have fewer unintended consequences.
• Fault isolation is simpler and quicker.
• Mean time to resolution (MTTR) is shorter because of the smaller code changes and quicker fault isolation.
• Testability improves due to smaller, specific changes. These smaller changes allow more accurate positive and negative tests.
• Elapsed time to detect and correct production escapes is shorter with a faster rate of release.
• The backlog of non-critical defects is lower because defects are often fixed before other feature pressures arise.
• The product improves rapidly through fast feature introduction and fast turn-around on feature changes.
• Upgrades introduce smaller units of change and are less disruptive.
• CI-CD product feature velocity is high. The high velocity improves the time spent investigating and patching defects.
