LambdaMOO has prototypical inheritance, so you create objects from other objects.
@create $note named "Old Post-It"
You now have Old Post-It with object number #51116 and parent generic note (#9).
An object that can have children is called 'fertile'!

Anthropic used Claude to write a C compiler in Rust (CCC). I've really enjoyed following the discussion.
The initial post shows how they wrote the harness with GCC as an oracle and a prompt specifying a design using SSA. The author has clear domain expertise.

Wonderful post from the lead LLVM maintainer reflecting on how the project is run, the design issues in LLVM today, and opportunities to make it better:
Igalia's post on self-hosting CI runners is a masterclass in build engineering. It shows dealing with weird API constraints, but still finding good designs.
I also learnt that some CI systems use OCR on Apple's installers to automate!
