The jam results are now up at hytradboi.com/jam. I haven't had a chance to read through all of them yet but it looks like there were some neat projects. For my own jam project, I tried to make a sql frontend that could pass sqllogictest. In sport and in music there's a kind of training where you try to push a skill to it's maximum along some dimension to see where you break down first. It's a way of finding bottlenecks that can be improved. That's kind of what I had in mind. Sqllogictest is one of the smaller test suites from sqlite and it doesn't have great coverage of the sql language. But it's a test suite I'm very familiar with because it was the first test suite that we tried to pass at materialize, and it also mostly tests generic sql rather than any particular dialect or interface. So it's well suited to a speed challenge. I tried to roughly categorize the things I noted. Mechanical. Typing is still a bottleneck. I make a lot of errors. Correcting the errors sometimes breaks my
