Ever thought about writing #WebAssembly by hand? 🤔 Authors Patrick @dubroy.com and @marianoguerra.org think it's crucial for learning. They join #WasmAssembly host Thomas Steiner to discuss their ebook, "WebAssembly from the Ground Up" → goo.gle/3Ln67Pp

Tanenbaum–Torvalds debate 2.0 On the fact that the Atlantic Ocean has two sides 2.0

Today I presented to the Wasm CG a proposal for fine-grained dynamic code generation as a core WebAssembly feature. The proposal is now at phase 1! github.com/WebAssembly/... Also immortalized in song: suno.com/song/19e0679...

Periodic reminder (since I apparently don't talk about it enough) — If you are interested in a hands-on way to learn #wasm, check out the book that @marianoguerra.org and I wrote together!

Working on a diagram for an upcoming @wasmgroundup.com blog post.

(Needed a thread here where I can post new examples!) Dodrio (by Nick Fitzgerald) is an experimental virtual DOM library for Rust and Wasm. It uses bump allocation for the VDOM nodes and uses a stack machine language to represent change lists: github.com/fitzgen/dodrio

i'm hiring a 'growth engineer' to work side-by-side with me at val.town in brooklyn we're a small team on a mission to spread the joy of programming we're looking for someone self-directed, loves talking to users, write english & typescript, and own projects end-to-end if this is you, reach out!!

This week the W3C WebAssembly Community Group is holding an in-person meeting in Munich. We (@dubroy.com and @marianoguerra.org) are planning to be there. Patrick tomorrow, and both of us on Thursday for the Research Day. If you see us, come say hi!
