    For the moment (well, february) the improvement with PHP 8.0 JIT is minimal: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=PHP-8.0-... But usually a JIT is made in a way that…

    Seemingly the only relevant reply in this comment section. That said, the article is kind of vague and has a few big misunderstandings unrelated to Tononi's Phi and Information Int…

    Chris Granger (of Light Table fame) and his bunch at Eve are working on something like that. There are a bunch of presentations on YouTube. They are more looking at it abstractly a…
