That's right. wasm is just like asm.js, plus the possibility of shared-memory multithreading. It has far more in common with asm.js than it does with NaCl, contrary to the conclusions of the article.

Threading and being a binary format instead of a text one aren't differences as fundamental as the difference between the Web APIs and NaCl's Pepper. Many of the complaints, as you point out, are about the Web APIs, and unlike NaCl Web Assembly is fully committed to the Web APIs (as it should be).

> And it shouldn't be. If it is, people submit stupid bugs.

I strongly disagree. You're conflating easy to enter a bug with a pleasure to use. There's no reason to throw both out.

Also, you're thinking of a public tracker. Where it's used within a team, having it easy and a joy to report issues is hugely beneficial, so they get logged without nagging and moaning.

This view neglects the fact that Google was pushing PNaCl during the "Why Asm.js Bothers Me" time.
The ports, though? That looks like USB Type A? I think that'll be replaced by USB Type C sooner or later.

If you think about old computers with their serial ports and floppy drives, it's hard to think these ports will still be in use decades from now.
Must say i am iffy about the Ford quote. while it is clearly aimed at being condecending, i find that often the public know what they want but not how to describe it to the engineers. This because they do not know the engineer vocabulary, and thus instead fall back to allegory or similar.
Asm.js and WebAssembly are meant for C++ or languages in which the memory management is manual. Garbage collected languages don't work, unless you implement the GC in asm.js as well. And at that point it's far better to compile that language to plain Javascript.

Also, I hate the "transpiling" verb and your usage of it is incorrect. We started using "to transpile" as a way to inform people that some compilers, such as CoffeeScript, have a Javascript output that's still readable and that doesn't lose abstraction in the process, the "transpiler" being defined as a "source to source compiler". People preferred this term to convey the information that some languages like CoffeeScript are just mere syntactic sugar over Javascript.

On one hand that's superfluous when the very definition of a "compiler" is that of a program that transforms source code from one programming language to another. And on the other hand, people are using it incorrectly. The minified output of something like Google's Closure compiler, coupled with the higher-level abstractions in languages like ClojureScript or Scala.js, etc, leads to a Javascript output that is no longer readable and that does lose abstraction in the process.
It's really not. I've been a big opponent to JSX for quite a while, but after actually working with it and dealing with TDD on the frontend I believe it is far better approach than what Angular does for example.
I'm wondering - are big cities becoming obsolete? I suppose there is no coincidence that some of the worst anti-privacy stuff is coming from big cities like New York or countries that are totally centered around a big city such as the UK or France. A big city of 10 million seems far more vulnerable to terrorism than 10 cities of 1 million each.

In the past, if you wanted a decent life, you kinda had to live in a big city. Now, however, thanks to the Internet, that is perhaps becoming less the case? The Internet now has a fantastic selection of shops. You'll also find lots of radio stations, music and video streaming online. There are more and more opportunities for remote work.

On the other hand, a city of 10 million has far more restaurants, clubs and social opportunities than a city of 1 million. So I'm not really sure whether big cities are becoming obsolete. Still, I'll be reluctant to move to a big city if it means that I have to give up my privacy. Not saying I'll never make such a move, but the balance of pros and cons seems to be changing.
It's funny how this centered around ZeroMQ, which is written in C++.

Linux was horrendous on PCs in 1995. First of all, OP is talking about hardware support: switching OSs doesn't give you a copper, or a soundcard with four voice wavetable synthesis.

Linux was slightly convenient on PC in 1995 if you really cared about:
(1) a basically Unix-y userland, with all the good and bad that implies. Shells and stuff worked better than cygwin
(2) tcp stack
(3) gcc

That's really it. X was a fucking nightmare to get to work "correctly" and then, as now, "correctly" on X means "it handles a remote networking case no one cares about better than the alternatives but still poorly, and everything else about it is totally broken."

Hardware support for every feature that was becoming interesting in PCs in 1995 (basically anything where economies of scale were making interesting stuff cheap) was absolutely terrible on Linux. Drivers for PC hardware, even the kind of PC hardware nerds liked (SCSI CD-ROM drives) were super flaky or non-existent. Application software was horrendous. There was no support at all for anything that still had a licensing regime around codecs, which, at the time included all the media software.

Linux was "quite good" in that you could set it up in a corner of your house and run httpd. That was dope in 1995. But compared to Amiga as a user-facing hacking desktop, it sucked shit. Hell, it sucked shit compared to a PC running Windows or a Mac.

Seriously, find a 486SX/25 w/ 4MB ram, a 160MB disk, a decent modem, and an S3 video card and put like, Yggdrasil on it. It will be way less fun to fuck around w/ than an old Amiga/Mac/NeXT/BeBox/SGI....at least in 1995 an Intel machine running DOS could run DOOM. It's probably the least-fun hardware/os combo from 1995 you could dredge up to play with.
Classic Doom engine was DOS4GW, not Win95

Marketica: Sharing and get money
The reason you and others feel the unreality of reality is likely the excessive exposure to media and the facade of unrealities presented to us as "reality"

News is crafted more like entertainment rather than investigating facts. The trend with cinema seems to be realism of fantasy and fiction. Reality TV is presented to us as if it were documenting "Reality" when it's actually a team of writers and producers carefully designing a planned narrative.

We sit at computers reading social media posts of friends and strangers presenting their own selective narratives to their "life" which is more or less a facade that omits the mundane or "real" aspects that we would encounter and be aware of were we not all so far removed and isolated by otherwise anonymous apartment complexes, neighborhoods, and (sub)urban typologies.

Personally, I would not desire any sort of luddite reversion of technology and entertainment. I do believe there is a concerning trend of detachment from reality born out of cultural habits, that is largely derived from mass media.

I've seen you post your disclaimer a lot lately. Do you think you are adding anything useful to the discussion by mentioning something vaguely related to the topic just so you can plug your blog post?
I find it quite overdone, but very important as a principle. I am working for a startup that is moving way to slow. They are doing tons of users testing and making decisions based on the wisdom of the crowd, which is not much.

Again, this quote at least to me, means that you listen to people and give them what they really want. People wanted to get places quickly, at the time, they thought that meant faster horses.

You listen to what your users are saying to you, not doing what they say. People propose solutions before porblems.

The other piece, is that you have a concrete idea and you develop it, and think about it enough, that you then validate by asking people. In a fragmented world like this many people want different things than other people, even from themselves day to day.

So, on second read, if I am hearing you correctly, I think we are all saying the same thing. I don't think many people would suggest google ask a bunch of users how they should implement a distributed network architecture, but ask you every time you log in what you are looking for.
If you got the best supported video card and best supported sound card etc (like I said, built the PC with Linux in mind), they worked. It wasn't for everyone, it wasn't polished but I thought it was awesome to have your own graphical Unix box and be connected to the community building Linux. I had a lot of fun. You could browse the web, listen to mp3s (if you had a 100 MHz 486), learn Emacs and Perl and Python and C, get to know how everything on the Internet worked including security aspects by playing with all the server software. All this for free and on cheap hardware.

The old 1995 Linux box is less interesting to play with than the stuff in your list because all the stuff in your list became extinct and aren't just retarded versions of their modern incarnations.
I wonder where the Amiga would have been today if those chips had been sitting on one or more easily swappable boards like what most of the PC did.

What seemed to sink the Amiga in the long run was that to go from OCS to ECS or AGA you basically had to buy a new computer.

But a PC could go from EGA to VGA by swapping out a card.

Never mind that the first 3D accelerators were pass through concoctions, where the VGA card had a short cable run over to the 3D card that in turn was connected to the screen.

I think this is a good move for them.

I don't see any of these express locations in NYC, but there is an "express" type Target relatively close to me in Brooklyn, and it's abysmal.

It doesn't really do anything for them. I saw that Target logo over by Barclays Center and thought, "Oh thank god! A real store where I can buy a variety of things and consolidate shopping trips. And it's on my way home from the work commute. Great!"

Nope. It's not any better than a RiteAid or some mom and pop dollar store or "grocery" shop.

When I found out that there was another Target even closer to me, I almost didn't bother going. I'm glad I did because it was a genuine (from my perspective as a Texan) Target store.

If Wal-Mart had these express stores in my area, I wouldn't bother. If I can't find what I need in your store anyway, I'd rather deal with a local and have the relationship with the business owner where I can at least say, "Hey, I shop here all the time. I am really frustrated that I can't find X. Would you consider placing an order for it if I promise to buy X of them every month?"

That works.

Good luck doing that at a Wal-Mart or a Target.

As much as I absolutely despise shopping in Brooklyn, I appreciate the locals. They really will help you out if you make it a point to develop a relationship with them.

And I'm not talking about the hipster-run artisanal crowd. I'm talking about the immigrants who bust ass and deal with hate speech and accusations of terrorism every time something goes down.

I hate the fact that they are good businessmen and stock only the junk food and cheap crap that people buy. It makes my life more difficult. But they are responding correctly to their market.

The difference between these guys and the shitty Target store at Barclays is that I can build a relationship with them. The goods for sale are pretty much the same.

And plus, when you are alone and single and new to the city and shit happens in France like it did a couple months ago, you can go hang out with a bunch of Muslims who know your name and drink free beer while they say 'Vive La France' and condemn that terroristic bullshit and support their community.

Try that at a Wal-Mart Express or a gimped up Target store.

I don't think the big stores like that can really succeed competing with the locals in a place like NYC. I would guess it's the same in other dense population centers like DC.

I agree with general sentiment that teaching journalists programming is not a realistic option - not only is it time consuming, but might also simply not workout for people who chose to be journalists. It is a humanitarian area of knowledge, after all, not technical. Of course, some might have affinity with programming, but generally speaking (from my experience at least) young journalists won't appreciate the idea of extra class where they have to learn programming.

However I believe infographics and data visualization specifically are important when trying to convey densely-packed information so it has to be taught journalists in some form. They should know that given some data they can pick certain type of visualization that would work well within the article.

I think some general course on data visualization without jumping into programming would work fine - explain what data visualization is, how it is done, what kinds of data could be used with it, what kinds of representations of data are available and so on. Plus share some resources where people can view various visualization samples.
Interesting, in this case it seems the choice to keep using C++ is just the most practical decision, which is much better than telling people to use C, but developing a library in C++.
You entirely fail to appreciate the word 'community'. That's fine with me, I don't care one way or another whether I can convince you that losing github would be a disaster for open source but just for a minute consider why all these open source projects that were formerly hosted in different places migrate to github. The community has achieved critical mass and that is what drives this, the technology is entirely secondary to that.

If you lose github you lose the community and a user / contributer to say 'apache spark' will not automatically be a user / contributor of all the other open source projects hosted on github. Single sign on for contribution to any open source project and a consistent user interface are also big pluses (but those are technical), and would be hard to achieve as well.

So in my opinion github (and several other services) are now really too big to fail.

I think Open Source has been overloaded to mean something else so that profit can be made while being morally superior.

IMO Open Development is what open source originally meant. Open development is only sustainable if devs == users, otherwise devs going to burn out eventually. Open source companies (as per your defintiton) are profitiable because the oss is not the primary product but a feature. Their primary products are indeed closed.
The overhead of calling a JNI function is considerable so this only works for functions that do a relatively large amount of work. There are also a ton of other drawbacks to this related to the fact that you've now escaped the JVM, miss out on the management of memory for those functions (so better make them stateless) and a host of other potential pitfalls depending on what platform you're doing this.

Definitely not an 'of course', and for critical performance if the function is small enough it might actually be slower to write it in C and call it from the JVM.
OCaml has a typesystem in which modules are first-class citizens, just like functions. They have a clear separation between interface (they call it "signatures") and implementation. The compiler enforces that you can only write against the interface, making modules with the same interface really exchangeable. The modules are also parametrizable (they call such modules "functors").

>The more C++ you know the worse you become at working with others. First, because your particular dialects of C++ tend to isolate you.

So why is using something non-standard and non-universal like <czmq.h> not perceived as a "dialect" of C?[1] Any non-trivial source codebase beyond "printf("hello world")" will be a "dialect" of the programmer(s). When looking at the C source files of Linux kernel, Redis, and SQLite, etc, the syntax patterns, helper macros, string manipulations, etc do not look the same.

Also the author's example of,

for (i = List.begin (); i != List.end (); ++i)
cout << *i << " ";

is not the same semantics as:

char *fruit = (char *) zlist_first (list);
while (fruit) {
printf ("%s ", fruit);
fruit = (char *) zlist_next (list);
}

The C++ loop is multithread safe. The C version is not. For the zlist_next() to work, the "list" data structure needs to maintain mutable state in between subsequent calls. (Think of how something like strtok() works by mutating the string).

[1]possibly because Pieter Hintjens is the programmer & CEO behind ZeroMQ and czmq.h. Therefore, it doesn't feel like a dialect to him?

On the contrary, I think it's pretty neat you can implement a variety of security schemes depending on your risk tolerance and convienence requirements.

Some of the parameters you can pick from:online vs offline ("cold"), hosted vs not, SPV vs full node, multisig, dedicated hardware wallet, etc.

And you can combine them in various permutations: e.x. offline + multisig is just about the most secure thing you can imagine.
