Ask HN: Compiler Engineers, what would you advise new grads/students to learn?
Something else in addition to the compiler engineering<p>Pure compiler jobs are far and wide between. You might get a good job but your career movement will be limited.<p>I believe the future of compiler design will go hand in hand with the demands of the industry. Traditional “by the dragon book” compiler is a solved problem. The growth is in the application of compiler technologies to Machine Learning, distributed systems, specialized hardware.
