So it's kind of like GraalVM with cgroups?

How about Kubernetes, in other words, how does this scale (I understand the single process proposition, but can't see how it replaces multiple containers, which might be deployed on multiple VMs / hardware)? In other words, what is the WASM runtime running on? In the article they show a WASI layer, but that does not replace a VM / container (AFAIK), so you still need an OS to run on. I'm a bit puzzled.

EDIT: let me rephrase my question. In a docker container you can have your libraries and dependencies independent of the host system (eg. in your container you need libc 1.0, whereas your host system has libc 2.0). This is possible because the docker container does actually contain a copy of libc 1.0 if you set it up so. But in the case of WebAssembly this is no longer the case (this is what makes it possible to have smaller images).

But then you need not only the kernel from the host, but everything else around it. Unless your code does not depend or anything, or you compile ALL your dependencies to webassembly, which sounds interesting - I'm not saying it is not possible, but is this how it should work?

Yeah, I wish this project had a React component backend.

D3.js and Observable Plot don't work that well with modern reactive frontend frameworks either though. They don't diff the SVG tree. The recommended way to react to some data change is to rebuild the whole SVG in a useEffect [1], when in fact you could just have a reactive SVG tree [2]. You just have to unpack and recode what would D3 do (see the case about Axis in the last link). Using enter(), update() and exit() seems to no longer be the way to do things. Also, React components offers great composability to the programmer.

I wish there was a maintained React version of Observable Plot; just like what React-Three-Fiber [3] does with Three.js. Or maybe a version of this Reanimate lib into a React component.

Well, he is, depending on your perspective.

For the developed countries, yes, there's a regression for the lower and middle classes.

For developing countries, which are very much developing due to capitalism, there is a <<huge>> improvement in quality of life right now.

I'd argue that life is improving for more people (in developing countries) than it's regressing (in developed countries).

It scales to much bigger problems, that's the impressive part. You can solve a small SAT problem with simple backtracking search, but try to solve a problem with millions of variables and tens of millions of constraints and suddenly your backtracking search is laughably slow.

This is like that but at a higher level of expressivity. Having both classical negation and negation as failure allows for easy modelling of uncertainty for example.

Did they neuter cats that did not belong to them? If yes, then that should be a violation. It is something the city could do not either, legally speaking.
Frankly it seems entirely plausible the government might intentionally punish them for solving a problem they couldn't solve.

I know someone who works at a company that used to be government-run until it was privatized and still internally operates along the same structures. Because there is little incentive to fundamentally change things, new ideas must always come from the top. People in the lower ranks are not just not incentivized to come up with new ideas, any new ideas that may be successful enough will be shot down and buried. The only way to implement new ideas without climbing the ranks yourself is to make your superiors believe it is their idea and allow them to claim the laurels if you succeed.

In other words: you can't just go out and do things. There is a process. And the process is more important than the effect, even if that process is defunct or fails to achieve the outcome.

>That's not how pensions, ETFs, index funds or pretty much anything works.

Yes, it's exactly how that stuff works.

Why is it not the pension managers responsibility to make sure his clients are not invested in these things if there is financial risk?

Or, if you decide to invest in a market-wide ETF, you are explicitly choosing to take the bad with the good.

I love how people think you can outsource decision making to absolve yourself of responsibility.

In the UK we make it much cheaper to be poor than <whatever you call the 20% of people above the poor>. That's nice, but it also means we have a lot more poor people, and that people trying to stop being poor get fucked. I am not justifying either choice. I am just saying you pick your problem and live with it...
Talk to the people who have created games based on existing characters: they made their own original work because they loved it, put in hundreds of hours, released it for free, and had their work taken off the internet with a cease and desist.

We see examples like that all the time. When was the last time someone was able to make their own popular movie from existing characters without facing some type of legal action? And I’m not talking about the “30% different loophole” where creators have to figure out the balance between recognizable and alienating.
Indeed, this can be done, but usually isn't. And when it is done, it looks like another proprietary syncing protocol.

The thing is that you should not expect a user to explicitly host a git repo somewhere to for a grocery list app. Most apps are designed for users who are unwilling to do that, and are actually ready to pay to avoid whatever technical hurdles.

OTOH I see a niche for an app geared towards more technical users, chich would, among other things, allow you to point at a git / hg / whatever repo to use as the synchronization point.
That's not the point. Of course any information given to a candidate in an interview should not be privileged -- the point is that the fact that this is how things "should be" does not mean that it's an implicit agreement to share the information you get with the general public.

security updates are important. and on a mobile device that's connected it's really important.
On Gameboy copying some code to RAM is essentially required if you want to use sprites, because the fastest way to update the sprite attributes (so called OAM) is to use DMA. And during OAM DMA the CPU cannot access anything else than a internal 128 byte RAM, so the DMA trigger + delay loop procedure must be copied and executed there.

> We demand individuals to do pointless self flogging rituals like tediously organizing their recycling just to have it be buried in china.

German here. It's not that hard to separate paper, glass, metal, plastics and remainder waste. Paper, glass and metal are recycled at very high rates (over 80% for paper and glass [1][2] and over 90% for metal), and the separation between plastics and remainder waste allows trash incinerator plants to better control their output and, at least assuming that we get large scale post-consumer plastics recycling plants, we already have the behavior and logistics established in place and only need to divert the streams at the collection level.

The key thing is, this sorting has to happen at the consumer, because filtering out valuables for recycling from a merged waste stream is all but impossible and at least in the case of paper, permanently kills off its recyclability.

When will we reach a point when articles and talks no longer start with "let me explain to you what webassembly is". After all, you don't see the same introductions in articles about javascript, or python, or even rust. When seeing an article starting with such introduction - after hundreds of other articles did the same - I never know how deep to expect it to go, and whether to continue reading.

I think the trend comes from services, like YouTube, enabling captions by default. I almost always disable them, because they’re distracting. However, sometimes I can’t be bothered. I suspect many people can’t be bothered even more often.

I enable captions sometimes for single words, which I failed to hear right, although usually in those instances captions show something completely nonsensical.
Counting calories helped me with adding more greens to my diet. I found out that I could start lunch (which is my main feeding event) with a healthy portion of lettuce salad and then eat more moderate portions of carbohydrates and meat as my main course and still feel satiated.
Don’t you see the game they’re playing with you? All those things listed in the thread they haven’t passed. It’s not because one party wants it any other party doesn’t. It’s because they both don’t want them and they play the game of “we don’t have enough votes“. It’s like how Obama could’ve codified roe versus wade in the law, but never did.

These posts are so stupid. The data graph is literally a normal distribution.

Just read some of the older posts. Claims that us on average eating 500 calories a day more than our ancestors is nothing to do with obesity. 500 extra calories a day gains you a pound of fat a week. Over years that would certainly make you obese. People don’t get fat in a two week period.

That USAToday article hardly tells the story. I think people want the perspective of the OP’s article with its DIY vigilante angle because it is our community ethos. Furthermore, it is sourced and adds value to the rote facts.
Wasm doesn't need to be interpreted, it's designed to be compatible with streaming compilers to produce machine code as the file is being downloaded, which can then be optimised more completely later on. In a Docker-like situation, I would imagine that you can skip the first compilation step altogether and just generate optimised code.

I suspect that still won't be as optimal as if you'd compiled the application for the target architecture in the first place, but I would suspect for most applications the performance will be relatively negligible.

I think it depends on where you are. In France, my fiber connections have had a fixed IPv4 since I first got one, 10 years ago. Some ISPs have recently switched to CG-NAT, though. But they also started offering fixed ipv6.

My point is that trying to hide behind a non-fixed IP is a losing game. Plus, you can probably be indentified quite reliably but the pattern of websites you visit.
US targets China’s potential chip stars with new restrictions
Incidentally, Cybersyn[0] promised to achieve that goal of automating central planning. Of course we never found out if it would have worked out as the system was destroyed during as part of the heavily US-backed coup replacing socialist Allende with the fascist Pinochet[1].

There are legitimate concerns surrounding the level of surveillance and automation necessary for such a system but they seem hollow from the present sociopolitical context where surveillance and automated decision making is normalized as part of the capitalist system rather than an aspirationally socialist one.

I think from the perspective of a social media company, the ideal UI would not allow the user any kind of agency in what content is shown and would be 100% driven by the algorithm.

Of course users don't want that, so what we have in practice is social media companies testing how close they can get to their ideal without upsetting too many users.

I was on 3 until my contract ran out a few months ago, but it was still that bad. Oxford Circus you have full bars of 4g but no signal at all. I was going in quite alot last year before most people had returned to the office it made no difference to pre covid.

I think part of the reason is that 3 only use a handful of bands where EE has a bunch more to spread the load.

Was the same when I needed to tether my phone, always had no signal but couldn't load anything. Had to hotspot off colleagues phones. This was all over central London (Shoreditch, London Bridge, Holborn)

Moved to EE and now don't have any issues.
The missing piece in this post is that it places vague requirements on a critic to "learn the domain" before criticizing, but no requirements on the author of the complicated solution to explain and justify why the complexity is needed.

If you have a complicated solution and can't explain or justify that complexity, you can't necessarily expect others to just respect it and take your word that it's necessary. They might have their own opinion. And maybe their opinion is wrong! But if everybody's flying by their own personal tacit intuition and can't communicate about the actual technical issues, you're going to get disagreements. You're going to get a stand-off of everyone throwing their feelings at the problem, and the HIPPO will decide what is ultimately done.
If you're putting single use plastic in a non-recycling bin in the developed world its pretty much guaranteed to go to landfill, not the sea. More so than putting it in a recycling bin where they might transport it on a ship to China.
I actually like self-checkouts very much and use them every time they are available. The reason is very simple: They typically do not require any social interaction. I like to shop with music on my ears and generally am pretty deep inside my head when I shop, because I like to plan my shopping list and would like to do that in peace. I hate the superficial social interactions at the register like saying hello and wishing a nice day (which is common and expected here in Germany, where I live).

Now don't get me wrong, I'm pretty social inside my own circle or when I go out for a drink for example (although I am Gen Z, so there's that), but I really do not like these interactions when they are forced and imposed upon me while doing mundane tasks like grocery shopping.

I was pretty surprised when the article claimed customers do not like them because that is the reception I've also gathered from friends.
