Very interesting! I remember someone in the web world say that if WASM existed before Docker, that would've been the obvious solution and containers wouldn't exist as they do today. I'm eager to see WebGPU used in a similar way to solve platform-independent GPU stuff; I know Deno is thinking along those lines.
A few reasons: LLVM IR is not a stable target (it changes with new version), it's not portable (you generate different IR for different platforms, due to e.g. platform-specific macros in C), and it's more complex

I believe that was one of creators of docker. And I don't consider that merely the web world.
Very exciting stuff. Glad to see the C++ codebase finally kick the bucket.
Oh thanks, I have absolutely nothing to get from this but it was crazy fascinating ...and very clear :)
LMAO @ non-GMO source code
Great stuff. WASM to the rescue
Using Wasm as machine independent languag to bootstrap is interesting, but youldn't you just use the LLVM IR to do that?

Why do you have an among us in your background
Glad i'm not the only one with the amongus brainrot
Because he's sus
Cool, though i didn't understood any of it
🤣🤣🤣
I know there was some good idea behind the scenes but it all got lost in the bloated and convoluted presentation.
