“By 1952, Hopper had finished her program linker (originally called a compiler), which was written for the A-0 System.[2][3][4][5]” from -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grace_Hopper
Later.

In your view, are CLANG and LLVM aimed at tackling those issues with today’s hardware or are they aimed elsewhere?
