idk how I feel about web assembly. At least now we can see what client-side javascript is doing. If WASM becomes mainstream then all client side code is going to be essentially binary blobs.
- ben-schaaf 5y agoWith all the minification and JS being used as a compile target for other languages it's already essentially binary blobs.

Also if WASM becomes the standard, everyone will have binary blobs running in their browser at every web page by default. At least now its only for web apps which are intentionally obfuscated/minified/transpiled/whatever...
