This feels unreal! After more than 6 years working on WebGPU, it's getting released in Chromium 113, in stable and without flags! It only took a bit longer than the 2 year adventure we initially thought it would be 😅 Read more about it here developer.chrome.com/blog/webgpu-re…

It is also a great step forward for Wasm Community since this version of Chrome includes an Original Trial for #WebAssembly GC.🚀 So you can use WasmGC on your site without any hassle for users. It just works! 🤯 Register on bit.ly/tryWasmGC And try Wasm GC!

I'd like to leave Twitter, but while most tech people I follow are on Mastodon, almost none of the non-tech people are. Maybe that will change with Bluesky? (I don't have access yet.)

Happy to share that RLBox (rlbox.dev) now uses upstream wasm2c (github.com/WebAssembly/wa…), vs. a custom fork of wasm2c to sandbox buggy libraries the Firefox browser (hacks.mozilla.org/2021/12/webass…) Deian Stefan Hovav Shacham glandium Bobby Holley Sam Clegg Alon Zakai Keith Winstein

Binaryen has a new wasm-merge tool that can merge WebAssembly modules together: github.com/WebAssembly/bi… github.com/WebAssembly/bi…

Bluesky has some problems, but it has huge potential, I think. A lot of tech people I follow moved to Mastodon, but practically none of the non-tech (musicians, artists, activists, academics, etc). Bluesky is actually attracting some of those non-tech people, which is promising.

Nice to see lots of work and interest in OCaml on WasmGC, and that wasm-opt and wasm-merge are helping there: github.com/WebAssembly/bi…

Interesting how missed optimization opportunities can still be found in very basic compiler code, even after many years: github.com/WebAssembly/bi…

📢 Heads up, WebAssembly fans: we have a new Wasm collection! 👉 web.dev/wasm 👈 This is your one-stop shop for everything #WebAssembly (#Wasm) and #Emscripten, curated by WebAssembly DevRel Thomas Steiner!

At this point most of Tech Twitter that I used to follow is on BlueSky. Everything is much better there: No ads, good moderation, fast & smooth, better underlying tech, and now it also has most of the people I used to follow, both tech and otherwise. Highly recommended!
