<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>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
<p>this will make <a href="https://github.com/WebAssembly/design/blob/master/UseCases.md">so many things</a> possible in the browser that never were before!</p>
<p>i decided to follow this <a href="http://webassembly.org/getting-started/developers-guide/">tutorial</a> and ended up with <a href="https://tilde.team/~ben/wasm/hello.html">this</a>.</p>
<p>i don't know what to do next. any ideas?</p>

<p>did you know that <code>~/.ssh/config</code> aliases work for git remotes??</p>
<p>~/.ssh/config</p>
<pre>
Host gh
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/gh_key
</pre>
<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>
<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>
Host tilde
HostName tilde.team
User ben
</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>
<p>the ssh_config file is super useful. check <code>man ssh_config</code> for a full list of options!</p>

<p>Everybody! We only have UNTIL TOMORROW to fight the FCC &amp; the repeal of #NetNeutrality! Repealing Net Nutrality would result in an unequal access to online content including research, social/political organizing, and personal media. It would also allow powerhouse companies providing internet to charge more for regular quality internet, and charge certain users more than others.
HERE'S A WAY TO ACT - takes less than a minute.</p>
<ol>
<li>Go to <a href="http://gofccyourself.com">gofccyourself.com</a>
(the shortcut John Oliver made to the hard-to-find FCC comment page)</li>
<li>Click on the 17-108 link (Restoring Internet Freedom)</li>
<li>Click on "express"</li>
<li>Be sure to hit "ENTER" after you put in your name &amp; info so it registers.</li>
<li>In the comment section write, "I strongly support net neutrality backed by Title 2 oversight of ISPs."</li>
<li>Click to submit, done. - Make sure you hit submit at the end!</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Copy and paste this into your own status update!</strong>
Seriously, this is simple and so important. Do it.</p>
