Random thought, but if some developers I’ve known were compilers, they’d create some interesting new types.
We already have:
- Precompiled
- JIT, or, Just in time
But now into the mix we see:
- JALBL, or, Just a little bit late.
- IGIDC, or, I got infected, Delayed Compile
- TH:DNC, or, Too hard, Did not compile.
and finally
- QS, the quantum state compiler, whereby the “compiled”/”not compiled” state is only knowable by observation. I call this the “Anyone seen John?” compiler.
