l: A new runtime for k and q

Not sure why all the hate (sure site may be vibecoded, not all of us are front-end masters and it's at least not spartan)... I've always found k to be fascinating, and cool idea to try and roll a new one. Wish it were wholly open source, but cool to have a new variant that seems to bench well.

Sure the site, the articles, the program. But sure lets just trust that the author who can't write knows how to benchmark software

Not a web dev - but have some experience in benchmarking these types of workloads e.g. https://www.mcobject.com/press/november19-2014/

L used the two open ones that are easy to replicate: H2O.ai (great bench) https://github.com/l-labs/db-benchmark TSBS (less great but useful) https://github.com/l-labs/tsbs

If there are others (will do ClickBench) they'll go there as well

I mean do a bunch of simulation work and statistics stuff but now jack about website design, so if I ever make a website about any project of mine it'll be vibedcoded or a barebones export of an org file README on github. Websites have little bearing on programming language runtime development, no?

maybe all the haters can't do anything but web dev
