WebAssembly has no access to any of the web API (DOM, ...) . WebAssembly cannot start without javascript as of right now. Flash died because of one platform not supporting it. The very same platform still doesn't support WebAssembly. A

Our benchmarks show amazing results... but not in speed. WebAssembly for us is about the size of the binary and the speed of parsing more than the speed of execution... A Javascript JIT with enough execution data can be even better than C i

The hedge fund still needs to be compensated for their time and skillset. In my life, time is the most precious resource I have. This investor's rant has a paradoxical comical impact for a rich man's tragedy.

Still, the debate doesn't happen publicly. I don't know why and who opposes it. Google has no position in it. But someone undisclosed with sufficient power at Google opposes it. And does'nt share his point of view with the co

Why do you think Google want this information to be out? A - Because they are lagging behind and don't want to look like they played and lost. B - To seek partnerships through Techcrunch. C - They don't want a non-working B2C pro

The french translation is pretty bad. The funny thing to try is to double translate english => french => english and compare both texts. If the results are way off, you know the translation is incorrect.

More production per square feet, per worker. Sustainable margin.

This is highly incorrect. The french experiment "ferme du bec" did some really important studies in that field going well beyond simply "organic". Using the latest bio tech of permaculture, (combining different plants co

It pretends to compare Kubernetes, Apache Mesos and Docker Swarm. This article says Kubernetes has a lot of stars on github (doesn't compare it to Docker or Mesos, only says Kubernetes has a lot), same for Slack/Stack Overflow and

We studied carefully the latest implementations, and I can tell you that the performance of webglis in on par with OpenGL Desktop. It makes sense when you look at how Webgl is implemented, being a simple binding to OpenGL ES. If you are in

WebVR works, only needs a compatible web browser. Chrome and Firefox.

This will change deeply how we make desktop applications, as well as database management systems.

Let's just say it's not new. Operators mostly watch the plant during the weekend while the engineers are not there. It is a security job: check if something turns red and pick up the phone if it goes bonkers. The operator has a li

We are talking about SF and plastic bag. Most of us don't drive in SF...and we do combine trips / car share because Uber/Lyft cost. Financial incentive cannot be ruled out as inefficient that fast imo.

We love those projects at my company (Inovia Team). Your load is not that big. You won't make any big mistake stack-wise, you just have to pick something you already have operated before in production at a smaller scale. Mysql, Postgre

The name Mayer is not present in that article. That's definitely PR for the investors. Maybe to prepare a transition?

I moved in USA recently, so maybe can help me understanding the impact of this beyond not respecting the law. What value this license provides to american workers? Do the healthcare system get better with the help of trained brokers? Thanks

He is the kind of really smart guy who makes code that looks obvious when you read it. BPG compiles smoothly, the code base is easy to understand. And that's also the brilliant part of it.
