Component model can run in any js runtime with jco

I wonder if this mess has anything to do with talent loss resulting from layoffs after the pandemic

Wasm is safer since it has a much smaller attack surface.

As someone who very interested in wasm, I really loved the post!

Fair enough. For me, having wgpu's rust native api feels so much nicer than having to deal with the unergenomic web_sys api. Tradeoffs.

Curious, why use web-sys directly instead of wgpu?

Can happen to corporate projects as well. As one example, look at how many projects Google has killed.

After restarting my computer, reinstalling git, almost ready to reinstall my os, I find out it's not even my fault

But the other browsers objected yet Chrome still shipped them

Not true about webgpu, but true about some APIs in Google's project-fugu

Kind of a dumb question, but how does it work if you have a 10 year non-compete in FL but move to another state after 5 years, is the non-compete valid in the other state?

Firefox doesn't support WebGPU in stable yet. Chromium does support WebGPU in stable, but not on Linux.
