A lot has happened in both Wasmtime and Cranelift this year, and @fitzgen (he/him) [on vacation until Dec. 10], @Pat Hickey, and @Chris Fallin have captured many of the most exciting developments and improvements in a new blog post: https://bytecodealliance.org/articles/wasmtime-and-cranelift-in-2023

It’s that time of year: time to start winding down for the winter holidayseason, time to reflect on the past year, and time to think about what we canaccomplish together in 2024. The Wasmtime and Cranelift projects are noexception. This ...

Hello, I was reading the post and found a mistake in a link. There is the following sentence in the article

We’ve also automated harvesting potential left-hand sides from Wasm and synthesizing new optimization rules via Souper.

The href on "automated" is href="github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/7312" so the browser redirects to the link https://bytecodealliance.org/articles/github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/7312 which of course does not exists instead of https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/7312

The article is interesting, continue this great project :muscle:

Edit: I found another occurrence of this issue in the following paragraph (highlighted in bold):

We currently perform some legalization early in the compiler pipeline in open-coded Rust matches, that we would like to port to ISLE. Some exploratory work has already begun.

This has been sitting on my filesystem for a while and I want to make sure we have it for if/when we start synthesizing optimizations with Souper again.
