- Comment on Google Launches Project IDX, A web-based IDE 1 year ago:
True, I myself prefer VS Codium but how many people use it? And some site like Coursera have VSCode on the web and it can’t be changed to VSCodium.
- Comment on Google Launches Project IDX, A web-based IDE 1 year ago:
I just hope it’s not yet another electron or DOM based editor
Unfortunately, yes.
- Comment on Golang be like 1 year ago:
JS simply does not care.
- Comment on Google Launches Project IDX, A web-based IDE 1 year ago:
I am not saying otherwise. But do we still have a say?

Aren’t we past this point?
- Comment on What's stopping WebAssembly from effectively replacing JavaScript? 1 year ago:
Interesting take!
- Comment on What's stopping WebAssembly from effectively replacing JavaScript? 1 year ago:
What about maintainability of large code bases? JS even with TS tacked isn’t so great or at least not as good as Rust.
- Comment on What's stopping WebAssembly from effectively replacing JavaScript? 1 year ago:
My bad. I can’t find the actually video but there exits a startup that shutdown because Rust/WASM performance wasn’t any better on top of that it’s was harder to develop with Rust. But as my edit to my previous comment shows things got better for Rust. It’s no longer the case.
- Comment on What's stopping WebAssembly from effectively replacing JavaScript? 1 year ago:
IIRC a startup tried to exactly that and they abandoned it. It’s wasn’t any faster and is actually harder to develop.
Maybe things have changed now, I didn’t follow any updates.

FYI: There is a Linux distro that bets heavily on D Lang, Serpent OS.
