[2025-05-09T09:03:43Z] <sewn> fultilt: nodejs takes more time to compile than rust and go combined what
[2025-05-09T09:20:38Z] <fuiltilt> sewn: But neither Rust nor Go will compile at all for RISC-V on musl.
[2025-05-09T09:53:03Z] <sewn> ic
[2025-05-09T09:53:07Z] <sewn> well thats a loss
[2025-05-09T09:53:08Z] <sewn> cuz nodejs is shi
[2025-05-09T16:03:35Z] <fultilt> sewn: Also, even if building a single version of Rust only takes an hour or two, Rust's whole bootstrap deathmarch is bound to take days.
[2025-05-09T16:06:29Z] <midfavila> rust is...
[2025-05-09T16:06:31Z] <midfavila> LE BAD
[2025-05-09T16:06:50Z] <midfavila> and then everyone clapped
[2025-05-09T16:16:21Z] <sewn> fultilt: rust is not bootstrappable afaik
[2025-05-09T16:27:33Z] <fultilt> sewn: Guix does it, I assume NixOS must do it somehow too.  You start with mrustc and then build every single version of Rust from 1.74 (or maybe 1.54) one by one until you reach the current version.
[2025-05-09T16:28:34Z] <fultilt> (To be fair, mrustc is at least _trying_ to support RISC-V and musl, I just couldn't get it to work.  That's more than I can say about go-bootstrap.)
