@juliobiason missing the invention of WASM to fix all of the above mess

Gorgeous na Shock!

@sophieschmieg @juliobiason I feel like WASM is a fun sideshow that replaces Flash for creating a fun blob of program in the middle of the page.

I dunno I'm still using jQuery for most things...

Luci for dyeing

@jacobydave @sophieschmieg @juliobiason no? people just wish it was. shipping binary blobs is only going to make things worse

@sophieschmieg @juliobiason I thought WASM is a fix for docker which is commonly used to reproducibly serve the unholy node_modules mess created by all of the above ...

Nah that's WASI. and docker exists because after 30 years python still didn't have a package manager that worked.

15 years later nothing has changed :\

@sophieschmieg @juliobiason I mostly hope for WASM to replace the ungodly stuff that's the Js engines in the browser :'-)

@sophieschmieg @juliobiason wasm wasn't invented to fix it, it was invented to put legacy c++ no one wants to rewrite in the browser
