That is completely off topic.

My comment was about the claim that Mill is immune to Spectre because it doesn’t do speculation as OoO machines, and during talk there was mention that fixing OoO require labor-intensive and error-prone annotations of the code, and claim that Mill doesn’t require that.

How is that true, in the context of my code example and compiler hoisting loads before branches, which WILL happen in 95% of open code and loops.
