homarpon Quamina and Claude, Case 1

This was an interesting read: https://gizmodo.com/right-to-compute-laws-are-spreading-acro...

this part in particular:

Like right-to-work laws that frame themselves as protecting individual freedom, critics warn that right-to-compute statutes could, in practice, primarily benefit large corporations by limiting the ability of states and local governments to regulate AI projects.

homarpon Using go fix to modernize Go code

I really liked this part:

In December 2024, during the frenzied adoption of LLM coding assistants, we became aware that such tools tended—unsurprisingly—to produce Go code in a style similar to the mass of Go code used during training, even when there were newer, better ways to express the same idea. Less obviously, the same tools often refused to use the newer ways even when directed to do so in general terms such as “always use the latest idioms of Go 1.25.” In some cases, even when explicitly told to use a feature, the model would deny that it existed. [...] To ensure that future models are trained on the latest idioms, we need to ensure that these idioms are reflected in the training data, which is to say the global corpus of open-source Go code.

homarpon What happened to WebAssembly

It's a complement to my other answer to you (about your Q on why ppl would not want to learn/use js and would prefer WASM if there was FastDOM ==> because not everyone wants to be multilingual): I was listing a few languages that people are confortable with and would rather use through WASM than learning idiomatic JS/TS ( it's easy to learn the syntax, it takes practice to learn the idiomatic way).

And yes, I do meant that my listed have gotten better, just like JS/TS.

As for why not comp/transpiling to JS? it is my impression that WASM was born out of that ( Compiled to subset of js (asm.js)) and it's an evolution of compiling to JS.

homarpon What happened to WebAssembly

> [...] sucks less

so does c, zig, c++, go, rust, python, ruby, php, ada,...

homarpon What happened to WebAssembly

it is not hate. It is same reason people likes node on the backend: one language to do eveything.

Wasm with 'fast' DOM manipulation opens the door to every language compiling to wasm to be used to build a web app that renders HTML.
