WebAssembly Text Format (wat) is fine to use. You declare functions that run imperative code over primitive i32/i64/f32/f64 values, and write to a block of memory. Many algorithms are easy enough to port, and LLMs are pretty

This is why Steve Jobs demoed software. Watch when he unveils Aqua, there’s a couple of slides of the lickable visuals and then he sits down and demos it. He clicks and taps and shows it working. Because that’s what you the user will do. He

I'm working on a compiler for WebAssembly. The idea is you use the raw wasm instructions like you’d use JSX in React, so you can make reusable components and compose them into higher abstractions. Inlining is just a function call. htt

Instead of “harmful to performance”, why can’t we say “slow”? Harmful should be reserved for things that affect security or privacy e.g. accidentally encourage bugs like goto does.

Yes I’m also working on a SQLite parser, mine is in raw WebAssembly. Is yours open source too? This tool will be so useful. I have basic page reading and parsing of the CREATE TABLE schema: https://github.com/RoyalIcing&#x2F

I agree, and I really like the concrete examples here. I tried relating it to the concept of “surprise” from information theory — if what the LLM is producing is low surprise to you, you have a high chance of success as you can compare to t

If data isn’t actually removed until vacuuming, then are systems that perform SQL DELETES actually GDPR compliant? Because technically the private data is still there on disk and could be recovered. “Until the autovacuum process or a manual
