Modular: The Claude C Compiler: What It Reveals About the Future of Software

Compilers occupy a special place in computer science. They're a canonical course in computer science education. Building one is a rite of passage. It forces you to confront how software actually works, by examining languages, abstractions, hardware, and the boundary between human intent and machine execution.

Right now the majority just tries to reimplement or clone already existing things without giving a thought if it makes sense.

“So even if you could build it, does it make sense?” is even more important today.

I wonder where accountability fits into the trend of “I don’t review code anymore”, since this seems to be a modern take on AI programming.

How accountable can people be, that pull up business logic that they don’t understand or even worse don’t care? Would you board an airplane when you know its software has been vibe coded?
