What do you mean by that? WebAssembly should have access to everything that JS has, so I think the answer is "yes"

I've legit wanted this for years. This is exactly the reason why I moved from JS to Rust as my main language in 2018. And it’s also why I've been working on Wasm Components for the few several years.

Because you know what's better than a portable tools used for server workloads? If you can make those same tools work for the web too.

This post is an expanded version of a presentation I gave at the recent WebAssembly CG meeting in Munich. WebAssembly has come a long way since its first release in 2017. The 1.0 version of WebAssembly was already a great fit for low-level languages like C and C++, and immediately enabled many new kinds of applications to efficiently target the web.

Firefox is experimenting with native WebAssembly Component support in the browser and giving it access to the DOM! It removes pretty much all of the overhead Wasm on the web has today compared to JS. Making it possible for web apps written entirely in Rust to start outperforming JS.

@paoloredaelli umami extract, typically made from seaweed. It's a white powder with coarse crystals.

Think of it as the umami equivalent of salt, sugar, and vinegar.

@neauoire that's just unprocessed MSG, so I think that counts hehe

FWIW I might just try that today ^^

Do you put MSG in your pasta sauces?

I'm not sure I'd say "AI doesn't work" anymore. It definitely doesn't "work" to the degree that the loudest boosters will claim it does. But like, I do think it's recently crossed a threshold where it can be a useful tool in the right hands.

Which I personally find very annoying since I too have moral qualms about the broader AI industry. E.g. the point about surveillance you're making I think is an important one.

Global energy consumption operates at a terrifying scale. In 2024 the world consumed 186 PWh (Petawatt Hours) of energy. Of which solar only made up a measly 5 PWh.

This post articulates the structural problems with BlueSky and ATProto really well:

Be Wary of Bluesky

Bluesky promises decentralization, but nearly every user's data sits on Bluesky's servers, and every new ATProto app reinforces that centralization. T

Loving the slogan!

I don't really wear shirts like that; but if you ever bring out stickers I'd love to get some!
