This sounds like a really cool project. What challenges have you encountered so far?

Thanks. The hardest part has been slogging through the segfaults and documenting all the unprincipled things I've had to add. Post-bootstrap, I have to undo it all because my IR is a semantically rich JSON format that is turing-incomplete by design. I'm building a substrate for rich applications over bounded computation, like eBPF but for applications and inference.
