It still surprises me too! I need to change my name to Matt Compiler-Explorer :D

It's the old Frankenstein's Monster problem.

Much like you could argue that Dr Frankenstein was the real monster in that story, I'd say Matt Goldbot was the real Compiler Explorer all along.

If you want whimsical names though, someone set up a Decompiler Explorer at dogbolt.org.

I hadn't realized it until I started working with him back in the day and saw his name on Slack.

Wrote him a message and told him how much we appreciated his work at my previous workplace and how we used it all the time to settle debates about C++ code.

Wonderful guy, back then he was very pleasantly surprised that people actually used his website.

I've only found out recently, thanks to the C++ Iceberg.
