About to port libffi to Fil-C.

Unlike most programs, which just work in Fil-C with zero or no changes, libffi needs to basically be rewritten. Instead of using assembly for reflectively crafting calls it needs to use the Fil-C zcall api. And instead of JITing closures it needs to use the Fil-C zclosure_new api.

Should be fun

I have started to lean into my love for education and security and created Phended for non-technical users. I just did a rebranding, added an LLM chatbot, and a learning management system which I am going to be working on courses for the next little bit and would am looking for contributors to course content.

Would love some feedback overall and suggestions: https://phended.com

A way to store bookmarks all in one place similar to Pocket, but built around semantic feature as the primary feature. Been beta testing an iOS app, but need to pivot on the name since there’s another Recallify on the App Store, and haven’t gotten around to it due to not much user growth.
