Huge quality-of-life improvement for devs… although most folks aren’t hand-coding WASM this enables high level languages that transpile to make use of native idioms cleanly.

I'm happy to announce that the WebAssembly GC proposal has moved to phase 2 as of this morning. This is the result of the hard work and patience of many folks in the WebAssembly community group, especially over the last year, and I'm excited to keep up the strong momentum. 1/

Hello friends -- I quit my job late last year, and after a much-needed break I'm about to announce my next big project: a book for #gamedev folks like me. If you've been sticking around for stuff like this, I hope you'll RT the announcement and help me spread the word. Cheers!

Really seems like something they should cover in basic training, probably on day 1, maybe on the application form.
Great list. A lot of it applies to being an EM as well.

Likewise do not call anything Blitz anything.
“Distributed” you say? Can this be mapped onto a blockchain so it isn’t free to use _or_ to contribute to? (JK, project looks neat. Is it still alive?)

Site owners create an SQLite database (.db file) and create a torrent from this file. They then proceed to seed this torrent -- just like they would seed any other file. Site users then start downloading the site torrent, but, rather than downloading pieces of the torrent in "rarest first" order, they download pieces based on the search query they performed. In other words, given a search query such as "indiana jones", TorrentNet knows to download pieces of the torrent where data for "indiana jones" is likely to be stored at. Hence, results are given to users in a timely manner, without having to wait until the entire database is downloaded. Furthermore, since search queries are just regular torrent piece downloads, a search query can be satisfied by many different peers in a swarm, effectively allowing for distributed search engines.

Kid just asked me whether there was a negative zero. I knew this day would come but I wasn't quite ready to have The Talk about IEEE 754 quite yet.

What’s more painful than stepping on a LEGO brick while exiting the room after getting your kids to bed? Stepping on a LEGO “tire shredder element.” ☠️

In a functional society, school is education, not a lifeline, & healthcare is a public service, not a perk to be held ransom by an employer. As a nation we shouldn’t have to choose between forcing people into unsafe conditions & leaving them without vital support. But here we are

Got one kid playing Zelda (NES version) and the other playing Sonic (Genesis version). Apparently the classics still hold up.

Fire is going the other way and looking better, so we may have prematurely evacuated to Eldora, where it is dumping snow :)

Booming U.S. Economy Ripples World-Wide

The force of the American expansion is inducing overseas companies to invest in the U.S., betting that the growth is still accelerating and will outpace other major economies.
