CSS Grid is now live in all major browsers, and with it everything we know about web layouts changes! The CSS Grid Layout Module introduces a native CSS grid system, provided at the viewport level, that achieves what CSS frameworks and popular grid systems could only dream about: Responsive, flexible, pure CSS grid layouts, independent of document source order, that allow us to treat the browser as a true design and layout surface.

HandmadeCon 2015 - Jonathan Blow

Announcing Operator Framework, a FLOSS project backed by libuv and webkit that allows people to build lean and fast, lightweight apps for mobile and desktop. This is the successor to Electron and Phonegap, wrapped on into one framework with a simple DX that is a fraction of the size of even Tauri or Neutrolinojs.

Node on Mobile

I’d like to take you on a stroll down memory lane and dig into the internals of the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) to figure out how it works. While we’re there, we’ll see how to build a game for the NES using 6502 assembly with the help of a few modern tools. We’ll gain a new respect for ’80s developers and an appreciation for the high-level languages we have today!

Writing NES Games! With Assembly!!

In 2019, the WASI standardization effort was started in the WebAssembly CG as a way to bootstrap an ecosystem of safe, portable WebAssembly modules running outside (or inside) the browser. The starting point of the design, captured in WASI "Preview1", included tried-and-true POSIX concepts like files and directories. However, as the standards group worked to realize high-level goals including language neutrality, low-latency startup, low-overhead virtualization, heterogeneous host environments, fine-grained sandboxing and robust composition of programs from modules, the approach of mapping classic POSIX concepts into WebAssembly kept running into problems and a new approach had to be explored. Two years (and one pandemic) later, based on experience gained from Preview1, an improved design has emerged that splits the problem in two, factoring out a foundational "component model" layer that is implemented by the WebAssembly engine, providing a more lightweight, composable, declarative unit of code, along with new Wit and World syntax for defining WASI and other component interfaces. This talk will describe some of the original problems and how they are proposed to be addressed, present some examples of next-iteration WASI interfaces in action and discuss paths of incremental adoption.

WebAssembly: The Path to Components

Dr. Talia Gershon, a materials scientist by training, came to IBM Research in 2012. After 4.5 years of developing next-generation solar cell materials, she got inspired to learn about quantum computing because it might enable all kinds of discoveries (including new materials). Having authored the Beginner's Guide to the QX, she passionately believes that anyone can get started learning quantum! - Maker Faire Bay Area 2017

A Beginner’s Guide To Quantum Computing

A major earthquake has hit TC39, the JavaScript standards committee. A proposal for adding type annotations to JavaScript has just landed on the committee and has been approved for Stage 1. What is this proposal all about? How did it come to be? What is the motivation behind it? What are its pros and cons? Why are some people excited about it, some wary, some angry, and some afraid? 
As one of the writers of this proposal, I will delve into the details of the proposal, and try to answer all the questions above.
