WASM Wayland Web (WWW)

joeyh.name/blog/entry/WASM_Wayland_Web_WWW

Author proposes to replace modern browsers with the following architecture. You make HTTP requests, server return you WASM blobs, they get executed. No built-in DOM.

DOM and its three languages are among the best technologies ever made, despite being so misused. It not being the default way will probably be disastrous. Think about accessibility!

But the idea is cool 🤔

When Did Personal Computers Stop Improving? - Björn Wärmedal

warmedal.se/~bjorn/posts/2021-09-25-when-did-personal-computers-stop-improving.html

I guess the point I'm trying to convey is that I do the same things with my computers today that I did one or even two decades ago. The hardware has become monumentally more powerful, but my user experience hasn't really changed a bit. And most of all my level of productivity and enjoyment from my devices stays the same.

Too much efficiency makes everything worse: overfitting and the strong version of Goodhart’s law

sohl-dickstein.github.io/2022/11/06/strong-Goodhart.html

Overfitting is bad. The best example in the article is the school system. Tests were introduced to measure students effectively. They were a good measure for that! Then schools started focusing on tests. You know what happened. Поколение ЕГЭ, cramming, etc.
