.exe has bindings to OS ABI and system calls, WASM doesn’t have this by default, it’s up to the VM to provide whatever environment the WASM executable needs, ideally there should be no system calls, no stdio, just instructions on how to int

WASM is platform independent. What do you mean by C bindings? C bindings to what?

I feel like every language has its fans. What invariably happens is that people want their favorite language to work in every situation that they might need to work. Personally I would choose Rust as well, but I would choose Rust for almost

GPL is copy left, it has a stated goal of encouraging more software to be OSS, including new contributions. That’s what I meant by software remains open. MIT on the other hand can be used in closed source situations. While the original code

A discussion on licenses will go sideways very quickly. GPL does limit the adoption of software in certain environments. So it really depends on your goals. Do you want an OSS project that will be useable by everyone (including corporations

I found the title for this post misleading. To clarify it a bit, AI has only improved productivity by 10% even though 93% of devs are using it.

This is ultimately the thing that needs to be fixed. The exemption for small trucks was stupid, and it should have been reserved for literal farm equipment (as that was intended). The fact that SUVs slip by on this now has created such a du

I suspect that Mark Twain would even greatly appreciate the humor in referring to it that way.

As I recall, BeOS was asking on the order of $80 million, NeXT was acquired for $400 million. I found this reference, so 80 valuation, Be wanted upwards of 200, “In 1996, Apple Computer decided to abandon Copland, the project to rewrite and

The primary reason to legalize isn’t to make it easier to do drugs, it’s to not use the justice and court system for dealing with addiction problems. Our goal should be to legalize use and then take the money saved from police enforcement a

This is great to see. I had my own effort around this that I could never quite get done. I didn’t notice this on the front page, what JVM versions is this compatible with?

Ok, the GP is only using carbon offsets, but the economic one are just as good. Forgoing car ownership allows for that money to then go other economic uses. Forgoing fuel costs, $20 for electric, $100 for gas, again allows that to go into t

I’ve always thought POSIX compliance is the primary thing vendors should be targeting for portability. I was trying to find something that would explain the difference between POSIX and UNIX compliance, but there’s not great sources on this

Not to be that guy, but if you’re doing a new CLI and you want something as fast as C++ but closer to the out-of-the-box cross platform and general use of Python, Rust and the Clap library are a really good option. I can whip out a bug free

Technically all of these make targets look for files by the names of the targets. Each one should really be defined as .PHONY. That said, I used to write makefiles like this all the time, but have since switched to just and justfiles in rec

No, that is not the entire point of DoH. That’s like saying the entire point of TLS is to prevent users from looking at the traffic being sent to a website. DNS without DoH, DoT, or DoQ, is wide open to anyone snooping traffic in the raw, t

I think you need to consider the intention of why you would want to write base components of FreeBSD in Rust. It’s not to make a Rust operating system with its own new features, it’s to maintain and develop on an in existing system with cur

This is exactly my experience with Rust as well, people keep thinking C++ is an alternative to Rust with all the same features, but it’s not true. Rust is in many ways a simpler language than C++ and that can make it more productive, “To Ka
