I've been dabbling with OVH and it feels very pricey and fragile. Has a very lipstick on a pig approach to whatever they used to be doing before piling into cloud.

Watched the video. Why isn't the editor a TUI itself?

I found this article very interesting with regards direct WASM interpretation: https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.01183

I produced https://github.com/peterseymour/winter on the back of it and learnt WASM is not as simple as it should be.

I ran a test yesterday on ChatGPT and co-pilot asking first if it knew of a specific paper which it confirmed and then to derive simple results from which it was completely incapable of. I know this paper is not widely referenced (ie few known results in the public domain) but has been available for over 15 years with publicly accessible code written by humans. The training set was so sparse it had no ability to "understand" or even regurgitate past the summary text which it listed almost verbatim.

I entered into WASM assuming it was simple and minimal but there are a lot of runtime edge cases that are quite surprising. I built an interpreter that passes all the non-SIMD test cases from the official spec. Would be interesting to clean-up the spec to be a real minimal execution only core. There is a real barrier to entry for producing new lightweight implementations.

I'm looking for a physical calculator

What's a good simple calculator for programmers? Easy entry/conversion of hex and binary but simple arithmetic with possible shifts. I don't need to do trigonometry.

Love this game. On completing the level this error popped up:

class java.lang.IllegalStateException:Attempting to call unbound fn: #'clojure.core/unquote

I'm running on Chromium browser on XUbuntu.

One early forerunner was LEO https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LEO_(computer)

Take a look at https://github.com/tibru/tibru for an explanation of why the underlying technology is poorly chosen and how systems of this type don't need to be esoteric

Be that team and take https://github.com/tibru/tibru forward

Check out https://github.com/tibru/tibru No primitive arithmetic operations at all, no need for jets but the same time complexity as arithmetic in C just with a higher constant factor.

For those using Nock and seeking an alternative take on Urbit check out this open source project https://github.com/tibru/tibru A few willing devs could take this forward with open libertarian ideals. There is nothing special about Nock and Urbit technically or mathematically.

For those blocked by ad blockers: take the title of the article, paste it into to google and then view the cached page.

I get 'Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token ILLEGAL' on Chromium Version 37.0.2062.120 Ubuntu 12.04 (281580) (64-bit)

The live demo doesn't work for me

But looking through code there are lots of references to gc, mark and sweep. Even with acyclic data models memory has to be cleared.
