- Compiler basics: lisp to assembly, by Phil Eaton - in this post we'll write a simple compiler in Javascript (on Node) without any third-party libraries. Our goal is to take an input program like (+ 1 (+ 2 3)) and produce an output assembly program that does these operations to produce 6 as the exit code.
- Efficient and General On-Stack Replacement for Aggressive Program Specialization, by Sunil Soman, Chandra Krintz - in this paper, we present a novel, general-purpose OSR mechanism that is more amenable to optimization than prior approaches. In particular, we decouple the OSR implementation from the optimization process and update the program state information incrementally during optimization.

Parsers
- Learning Parser Combinators With Rust, by Bodil Stokke - this article teaches the fundamentals of parser combinators to people who are already Rust programmers. It assumes no other knowledge, and will explain everything that isn't directly related to Rust, as well as a few of the more unexpected aspects of using Rust for this purpose. It will not teach you Rust if you don't already know it, and, if so, it probably also won't teach you parser combinators very well.
