I haven't seen anyone make that claim. WASM's value has always been in its pragmatic integration plan using what is already there.

- pjmlp 6y agoThen you haven't been paying attention to the "rewrite in WASM" advocacy force and how WASM "has invented" polyglot bytecode.
- CyberDildonics 6y agoI've been paying pretty close attention and read a lot of articles and discussions, starting when it was being created and I have never seen anything about either of those. No one actually writes WASM directly, so no one says to "rewrite in WASM". It is only an optimization, so the two uses are to speed up javascript and to compile native languages. No one even says "polygot bytecode", let alone says that WASM 'invented it'. Most programmers have already used something that uses a bytecode format, why would anyone say that?
