> HN is not a site for discussing legal matters per se, but only the ones that gratify intellectual curiosity, and only to the extent that they do. That is what we're optimizing for here.

Taken at face value, it is unclear if this particular discussion "gratifies intellectual curiosity"

I have a slightly unusual job funded by a grant under https://nlnet.nl ! Everything is flexible -- think of it as an open source project where you happen to get paid.

We started in June, and there are currently 2 part-time contributors. We can use more help!

The job is to work on a shell interpreter in C++/Python with a TINY and cool garbage-collected runtime. Depending on your interest, you can work on:

(1) Data-structure heavy, performance-sensitive C++ code -- e.g. mark bitmaps for the GC, small value optimization, lazy sweeping, hash tables, and more. We have an objective goal that enables creativity: make the shell as fast as bash. Currently it's 1.6x slower on a long batch workload.

This runtime will let us add real data structures and JSON to a compatible shell! ( http://www.oilshell.org/blog/2021/01/why-a-new-shell.html )

(2) Semi-automatically translating code from typed Python to C++. This can be simple (adding MyPy types) or involved (compiling Python's yield to state machines)

(3) Benchmarks, builds, testing -- I like automating everything, and shell works great here :)

We've made great progress lately -- here's a screencast of our ~6000 line GC runtime working on real code (note debug output from the GC):

Some background: A Garbage-Collected Heap in C++, Shaped Like Typed Python

Everything about the project is open, so please take a look and contact me at andy@oilshell.org if interested. We can chat online or do a video call (I'm based in the USA). We can also arrange a code walkthrough or PAID "trial period". We want people who will have fun working on these problems.

Compensation: First grant was for 50K euros, and a potential second grant would be for 50K, to be split up among contributors.
