How zig has worked out in bun as compared to how rust has worked out in deno?

Looked around and seems pretty widespread. Links below to many issues, and some now fixed partially. Yeah, let's hope the open sourcing of those drivers make for a brighter future, but still I will do my damned best to never buy an nvi

This was on fedora 36... mostly screen will not wake from sleep, but also black lines on the screen, and complete signal mess up where I can barely see what's happening. I tried everything, like switched from hdmi to display port cable

I have a laptop with nvidia card and wayland runs fine on the laptop screen, but lots of problems with docks and external monitors.

Wow JBM is very nice, love ligatures and it's so easy to read. Thanks for mentioning it.

This is an excellent video on the topic. https://youtu.be/u7UmGEMduI8 In short, the 4,500 year old date is based on very, very thin evidence, and much other evidence of longer timeline is simply ignored because "it&#x2

Containers do not provide sufficient isolation to run untrused binaries. That's why aws built and uses firecracker for lambda.

Actually that's incorrect, there are a nunber of wasm runtimes that don't use v8. Here's links to a couple. https://wasmtime.dev/ https://www.fastly.com/products/edge-compute

What sort cold start times do you hope to achieve? If it's serverless and no cost while not using(aka scale to zero), you can't run those containers all the time. For comparison the serverless version of sql azure takes ~50 second

It seems to me that WASM is clearly a better suited technically as the core runtime of the future for serverless platforms... but the question is are isolates the VHS and WASM the Betamax in this story?
102.
by ledgerdev 4y ago
If you don't care about isolation... to do so requires a VM to securely isolate and that is a significant startup time and resource usage over a wasm module.

He does mention that he is looking for language to use for cli with fast startup. For cli and serverless cold start times become important so much so that clojure (non Graal complied) isn't usable for those scenarios.

It was 250 years between Newton's and Einstein's discoveries, so give it another couple hundred years or so. These things take time to bake LOL.

Same here, my $400 dock is completely non-functional with Fedora 35. I have read some reports it works with Arch, so maybe Fedora 36 will work.

What about zero downtime deploy of new version of your application? You have to take it down to restart, right?

Excellent point. Do you feel encryption/crypto shredding is good for these scenarios where nearly all data is sensitive?

> I may be misunderstanding you, but it feels like strings and datetimes are library related more than language related. Yes would agree and see them as platform related. It's just too large a task to create from scratch. Like say o

I have been thinking about creating a little higher level language that targets server side web assembly. Zig looks very attractive, but concerned with how to handle things like strings and datetimes. How suitable is zig for such a task com

I like this, excellent way to handle permanent record deletion.

> Wasmer recently recently released a closed source wasm package manager. Something doesn't seem right. Anyone feel something is off here? I have to agree. Are there any open source package managers similar to cargo?

Anyone know why they were rejected from Bytecode Alliance?

by ledgerdev 5y ago
Yep, overloaded term. Anyone got a better idea for what to call it in the context of sensitive data within applications?

We have been using a token vendor for PCI level 1 compliance and it's been most excellent. I can't tell you how many times over the years I've seen tens of millions of rows of sensitive data(e.g. ssn) sitting in databases une

containers != native exe. WASM can start faster than containers, not exe.

by ledgerdev 5y ago
Of course containers will be around probably forever, just as we still have mainframes. Note that current serverless and container platforms start and manage long running instances and occasionally incur cold starts. WASM has near instant s

Yes, but it will be large, ~40mb zipped. Net6 release broke trimming (tree shaking) with entity framework at least which caused an app of mine to balloon quite a bit. Native AOT is on the roadmap for net7 which is good but very minimal supp
