Here's a first step towards joining the #Rust and #SAP worlds together – a buildpack for deploying your Rust applications to SAP's Cloud Foundry environment github.com/lighthouse-no/cf-… Enjoy!

For those interested in cloud architecture, here’s an interesting article from Amazon Prime about how their original implementation of error detection in video/audio streams became far too expensive and complex to run, and unexpect…lnkd.in/eQcjZxNp lnkd.in/eSjQvEz8

In spite of the fact that #JavaScript is the most ubiquitous and arguably best-known programming language on earth, it still has the power to confuse, misdirect and generally discombobulate the unsuspecting developer. This ability…lnkd.in/ewk4kgae lnkd.in/eFJKvkDQ

Great news from Red Badger! Glad to have part of this implementation 😃 lnkd.in/e7r8Akp7

Are you interested in learning about writing code directly in #webassembly text? Then you should check out my latest blog on how I implemented the SHA256 hash algorithm in WebAssembly Text. The key take-aways from this exercise…lnkd.in/g6-SCkqy lnkd.in/gaz2_M7n

Interested in coding directly #webassembly text? Here's a blog about my implementation of the SHA256 hash algorithm: what worked, what didn't Key take-ways: * A raw WebAssembly data type would be good * Unit testing is awkward awesome.red-badger.com/chris…

So I decided to implement the SHA256 algorithm in #WebAssembly Text. Thanks to @manceraio for the details Couldn't quite squeeze it into 1Kb, but I'm pretty pleased with 1259 bytes 😎 All the gory details are here github.com/ChrisWhealy/wasm_…

20 years ago, Margaret Thatcher gave this penetrating and chillingly accurate analysis of the complete absence of any humanity in Putin’s character. The West chose not to listen…

As much as I like writing in #Rust, this blog makes a lot of sense… mdwdotla.medium.com/using-ru…

Do you: 1) write in #Rust? 2) have #WebAssembly as your compilation target? 3) want #JavaScript to consume the Wasm module? Then you’re going to trip over the “detached ArrayBuffer” problem. I did, so I blogged about its cause and how to avoid it. awesome.red-badger.com/chris…

Genius Hamilton parody from #ServerlessChats called “I’m gonna reduce your ops”. This should be required viewing for all in DevOps! youtube.com/watch?v=zMua0cuh… 🤣🤣🤣

I’m currently using both Slack for internal comms and Teams for customer comms Finding old messages/convos is so much easier in Slack than Teams. Teams thinks that convos are linked to meetings, so if you can’t remember in which meeting you said something, you’re knackered

The Dom in Speyer?

Java in the browser was a good idea badly implemented However, WASM is native to all browsers. It cuts across annoying proprietary restrictions and addresses many of the problems created by trying to get a “foreign monster” (the JVM) to play nicely in a browser
