It's fantastic! Such a smart approach, it's actually decent to read and it
really is able to speed things up. Gives you that tingly feeling of
controlling the CPU very directly, while still staying on the convenient
Java level.

Only thing that I find unfortunate is naming the package
jdk.incubator.vector. So when JDK 16 ships, I'll be forced to change my
imports? Well, not that big of a deal I guess, just a temporary
inconvenience.

BTW I actually do make "operating systems" in Java - well, it's an
integrated persistence framework + module loader + GUI + Java evaluator +
networking toolkit... so it's like the upper part of an OS if you will.
