<p>according to <a href="https://hacks.mozilla.org/2018/01/making-webassembly-even-faster-firefoxs-new-streaming-and-tiering-compiler/">this post</a> on the mozilla blog,
we will be able to compile wasm as it streams into the browser in much the same way that images are decoded. this is a huge game changer from the current paradigm
of loading javascript completely before being able to parse and compile it. </p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">JavaScript code is much more expensive, byte for byte, than an image, because of the time spent parsing and compiling it.<br><br>It&#39;s possible to parse and compile wasm as fast as it comes over the network, which makes it much more like an image than JavaScript code.<br><br>Game changer!</p>&mdash; Yehuda Katz (@wycats) <a href="https://twitter.com/wycats/status/942908325775077376?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 19, 2017</a></blockquote>

<p>did you know that <code>~/.ssh/config</code> aliases work for git remotes??</p>
2018-01-12 18:55:38 +00:00
<p>~/.ssh/config</p>
<pre>
2018-01-12 18:30:41 +00:00
Host gh
HostName github.com
User git
2018-01-12 18:55:38 +00:00
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/gh_key
</pre>
2018-01-12 18:30:41 +00:00
<p>you can now use <code>gh:username/repo</code> as the remote in place of <code>git@github.com:username/repo</code>, which is much shorter and easier to type many times!</p>
<p><code>git clone gh:benharri/learngit</code></p>
2018-01-12 18:55:38 +00:00
<p>there are many other use cases for the <code>ssh_config</code> file. for example, here is my config for the tilde machine for easy ssh connections.</p>
<pre>
2018-01-12 18:30:41 +00:00
Host tilde
HostName tilde.team
User ben
2018-01-12 18:55:38 +00:00
</pre>
<p>then use <code>ssh tilde</code> to start a new ssh session. this also works with <code>scp</code>: try something like this <code>scp file.txt tilde:workspace/.</code> in place of <code>scp file.txt ben@tilde.team:workspace/.</code></p>
2018-01-12 18:30:41 +00:00
<p>the ssh_config file is super useful. check <code>man ssh_config</code> for a full list of options!</p>
