Yeah, I tried to read this because I'm genuinely interested in this topic. I assumed going in LLMs would be involved, and I don't mind at all. But my gosh reading the article is such a slog. I couldn't do it

You have not lost much. From what I can see, their "new way to manage memory" is simply arena allocator (which was apparently invented in 1967).

Yep. 95% AI and 5% "mixed" analysis. Is it a good article? Well, I don't care to check because it doesn't feel like any effort was put into this. For all I know and guess, this was stolen from real humans.
