    Just curious, are you still able to get instant feedback and development conveniences on that 30 minute compile time project, like up to date autocomplete and type hints and real-t…

    No I mean what if we updated the wasm spec to allow it?

    Comment #44236086

    The one point here that's relevant to me is that if you use a service worker and then redesign your web app so that it's no longer needed, now you need to host code that removes th…

    I understand, but what I mean is, what if there is no more opportunity for the light to emit heat, because the surrounding environment is already saturated with so much heat that i…

    Why not just give apps chunks of non-contiguous memory and let them deal with that fact? Then like realloc, the memory they need stretched may just be moved first.

    I was told it was plasma. Who is wrong, them or you? Either way, I can't trust one of you...

    To be honest, I don't know what Docker or any of these things are. I just wanted to sound smart so I could fit in and people would like me.

    > the Gleam language, which is written in Rust and has first-party LSP support How have I never heard of this language before? https://gleam.run/

    Oh oh! Include 90s.dev! Such a perfect domain name, a built in pun. What a waste.

    That's a good point I didn't think about. I guess it's like v8 compared to quickjs. Anyway all this talk about wasm makes me want to write a scriptable Rust app!

    No, I do not accept this. There must be a way. What if the mirror box has a high enough heat? Would it work then? The box could be made of a heat resistant material, like fiberglas…

    I had no idea what fuel is until this discussion. What's the rationale? Just preventing infinite loops from hanging the host? If the inefficiency is the counter, what if you just c…

    ChromeOS only uses V8 by happenstance, being an OS that's just a browser. Android could have used anything and it would have been successful, even C++. These were both successful p…

    But if this benchmark is right, then wasmtime is 5x faster than wasmi for it: https://github.com/khvzak/script-bench-rs

    Comment #44229393

    I started on a Rust app that uses SDL3 and lets you script it via embedded V8[1]. But I'm very seriously tempted to fork it and embed wasmtime or wasmi and let you script it in any…

    Not sure why you were downvoted. I think you're probably right about a lot of that. I do know that it's certainly the case for me. I have a lot of talent, but I can't harness it un…

    Mostly I meant WASM as a platform (waap?) which seems so futuristic to me. I hope one day all OSes can natively run WASM code, though I'm not sold on WASI since then we're back to …
