>> I will continue to enjoy writing once and deploying anywhere! Except to the browser, iOS, embedded systems... WebAssembly is the real write once deploy anywhere tech now. JVM had its turn and lost.

It's a past that's readily accessible in the present and has carved out a niche in the gaming scene. Is that really "past"? I fully intend to delay my kids' introduction to online play in favor of in person multipl

Bot-assisted Rust could be amazing; there's some ports already happening which wouldn't have otherwise. Maybe Rewrite-it-in-Rust can actually be a real thing and not just a meme. But it does put a big burden on implementors to u

You are assuming that Play store search is even broken from their perspective. I bet all their internal signals on it are positive, as in they make money on the fraud and scams, and crack down occasionally just enough to retain user trust.

This is an underrated point. Healthcare especially is tied directly to employment in the US and basically kills this idea all by itself without major reform away from employer provided health care. I think it might actually be a good thing

You could compile NaCL code for x86_64, aarch64, and aarch32 as well. Chrome apps has a system similar to mobile apps where you would upload an app with all binaries and users would get the one for their system architecture.
