    I think that's just how prints from a transparent filament usually look like, at least in my experience. What looks like under-extrusion are just bubbles of air. You can print with…

    This one is basically my daily driver for similar tasks: https://app.heynote.com/ (full app at https://heynote.com/ ). And it seems to work almost out-of-box for your first two exa…

    Umm, yes? Not sure about the rest of Europe, but here in Czechia most of merchants have a direct payment method based on QR code. Basically: 1) you select your bank at the checkout…

    I would say that the problem really is there. Dealing with native dependencies and addons was almost always a pain as the article describes (and not just from developer perspective…

    Code testing is a big one for me. I'm currently using in-memory sqlite for tests and I'm often running into differences between sqlite and postgres (default values, JSON handling, …

    What I meant to say is that this definitely isn't a safe assumption and performance of this loop will be less predictable. That said, I wouldn't be surprised that such complex JITs…

    That's a really good point and I think that in this sense the comparison is really made between Rust and JS rather than between WASM and JS (as others have complained).

    The innermost rendering loop in the JS seems to create and destruct an array instance for every single pixel iteration (see https://github.com/dmaynard/chaos-screen-saver/blob/mast…

    And all that is just for being able to write `response = await fetch(...)` instead of `fetch(...).then(...)`.

    Isn't it already supported backend in LLVM? https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/tree/master/llvm/lib/Ta... I mean it is still under development but I think it is usable. Here's a …

    And at the same time they recommend using UAs to detect agents incompatible with SameSite=None cookies (see https://www.chromium.org/updates/same-site/incompatible-clie... ), inclu…

    Yeah, I'd say that it's actually pretty good result. Too bad that the benchmark doesn't include any non-browser WASM runtimes, like Wasmtime or Wasmer.

    So why not just write the original formula into the comment above the code? Maybe it's not the purest approach, but it sure would help parsing the code in this case.

    In my experience, it's better to create a "request context" at the beginning of handling a request and pass it down explicitly to subsequent async calls that handle the request. I …

    I think that the AssemblyScript project is halfway there. It compiles a stricter subset of Typescript to webassembly format, which can be then translated to CPU-specific machine co…

    That's quite a misleading link - "Mladi zeleni" are not the Green party.

    If I remember it correctly MPEG-2 patents are supposed to expire this year. So maybe it's time for JSMPEG2? (Ok just kidding, the whole MPEG-2 spec looks huge).

    TheVerge has a nice hands-on video of the prototype, which I think explains the whole thing better than the official website: https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2017/2/27/1473…
