isn't webassemly just a compile-target? Like JVM-bytecode or real x86 assembly? If so, then you are not really supposed to understand web assembly. Just like x86 assembly it's just what your language, like rust, compiles to. If yo

I've alway wondered the following: Since, in rich countries, nearly everyone who wants kids can have kids and if we assume a genetic factor in being drawn towards kids, then there would be evolutionary pressure towards wanting kids. If

I think a huge problem with usb-c is that there's software lacking explaining the situation to the user. There exist a huge number of standards and options but for users it only works or it doesn't, but ideally it should be explai

I think being low-cost is very important, otherwise I wouldn't consider it. I don't live near a major road, but in a small city. I don't think the air-quality is bad, but I also don't know for sure. I would not invest a

Naive Idea, but some mechanisms, like the testosterone-level in males, change with age. Why can't we, as a first step, just try to keep the levels fixed where we have a "reference level"?

I talked to a security researcher about it a few years ago and as I understood it it's a cat and mouse game. They are trying to mimic real phones but the malware authors always find a new way to tell whether it's fake.

I think uncrewed ships would be easier for avoiding piracy? I assume to take control they would need some kind of authentication so the ship would steam ahead...It would reduce it to vandalism but there's no financial incentive there

How long before cutting edge hardware trickles down to stuff like the Pi Zero? I think a usb-c port would be more useful for these small form-factors, but it's probably a long way of considering there's only usb 2.0.

Maybe we just learned different lessons ;) People can become addicts under different circumstances and we can't predict individual behaviour. Just because someone exists that violates a principle does not mean the principle is wrong.
