Maybe! It's definitely getting there. I suspect "semi-arbitrary subset of C" still has me beat but who knows for how much longer.

All praise Bob!

On a more serious note, have you thought about trying to aim lightning at the same spot again and write another book about implementing something most programmers take for granted?

[munificent]

I've definitely thought about writing a third book. I don't know if it would be about "something most programmers take for granted". I'm more interested in writing about whatever happens to excite me the most at that time.

[leftyspook]

I may be projecting, but I feel like the kind of person to get excited about crafting interpreters wod also get excited about crafting databases or OSes.

[munificent]

Maybe, but alas I don't know enough about either of those to write those books.

Hey Bob just made an account to let you know how much I appreciate both of your books and how much of an influence you've made on my life choices

Just want to hopefully make you feel warm inside knowing you've made a really big difference to people's lives

Thanks for being you

A type system sequel to Crafting Interpreters, please. Or a JIT compiler sequel.
