WASM component model is internal to the WASM project, isn't it? As such, it provides interoperability for one and only ecosystem (WASM), and thus has no chances to be perceived worthy and universal enough for people to care, that'

Wrong direction. WASI should be simple and stable. Initially, it was revolving around a simple Unix-like API model and it was close to perfect. Now, there is an opinionated component model which is an unneeded overcomplication that should h

Orbstack is essentially a happy-path-only contraption that quickly breaks once you happen to take a less visited corner of the street. For example, if you happen to have multiple users who needs to work with it... good luck trying to clean

Exactly this. ISPs are tricky players when it comes to peering. A typical symptom: servers in local region/country can easily saturate the connection, when anything external gets cropped down to 20-50% of a declared full speed.

To improve reliability, you can use multiple services from different vendors and implement automatic roll-over with Mikrotik and the likes. This is something I have been doing back in the day for the enterprise I am still working at. I did

For a developer, there is a lot of benefits in having at least 1 Gb/s internet connection. Obviously, downloads of software, docker images take significantly less time than 100 Mb/s connection could ever provide. But the benefits

That's why encountering something like LISP for the first time (by writing a LISP interpreter, for example) creates a big bang event in form of an imminent intellectual catharsis. People who encountered it just once, will never be able

Nightmares? Compared to other things we can encounter, .NET custom attributes are like a mild ocean breeze on a sunny day. Yes, their binary serialization depends on a functioning type system, and yes, type reference storage is not terribly

I somewhat agree with you. For example, in Deno v2.8 they've changed the return type of setTimeout and setInterval functions from webstandard-compliant 'number' to opinionated 'NodeJS.Timeout'. Which is a short-sigh

Absolutely, and having zero problems with it. Which gives a bit awkward and surreal feeling because usually we are used to have at least some problems when using similar technologies, not zero.

We support Mercurial project financially and we use it everyday. While I use Git for hobby projects, it does not cut it in terms of ease of use. Some newer SCM systems like jj look promising, but absence of tools like TortoiseHg undermines

At first they ridicule people with general disrespect, privacy violations and ads in Start Menu, then they expect the same people to treat them seriously. That's a cognitive dissonance right there, and now they have to live with it. Ps

AI is precise. People are not. AI calculates things. People manipulate them to their benefit. AI precision demands people's accountability. Some people feel threatened by that, fearing that their shady games will no longer be working.

And after all "safeguards" applied, the model becomes useless. It starts to suspect gender discrimination, racism, etc. everywhere without any grounded evidence or discernment. For example, I used ChatGPT model for risk assessment

Instead of prosecuting the real abusers, you suggest prosecuting the tools they use? AI is a tool, social media is a medium. The mass social engineering is nothing new. The whole hierarchies of human relations are based on deception.
