For the people doing "thoughts and prayers" they might induce a good feeling.

You know: this thoughts and prayers thing, that is genetic. Some have the genes, some have not. It maps directly to a brain area, and can be measured with a PET scan.

Stupid uneducated idiot.

I am just wondering, I reactivated my mac, because the power adapter of my fail Windows laptop is broken.
I found an app that I did not install super long ago, but did not remember what it is ... Jitsi.app

Thy it is a Yabber client, and my default route/main server was: talk.google.com ...

Broken ...

I guess if I dig deep in my memory, I find about 10 or more "projects" that more or less suddenly vanished.

And who needs "always on AI" on a mobile device?

I must be pretty odd that I feel not to fit into this ...

It's not like that for the wider population and never was.
In your country perhaps. In other countries people with a lot of daily contacts, like conductors in public transport, school teachers, doctors, nurses, police officers etc. P.p. get tested.

And I said exactly what I meant: unless you test *for the virus* regularly and widely, you cannot distinguish attenuated transmission from attenuated disease without attenuated transmission.
There is no difference in transmissions to find with tests. So? I have no clue what you want to say.
I infect you ... does not matter if I am asymptomatic or not. What is there to find with a test?

We talked about JavaScript code.
No idea why you omitted that.

Porting C++ - and plenty of others - to a webassembly runtime is relatively straight forward.
Many tool chains are LLVM based. So for Rust etc. you get it out of the box ...

Kind of the point is that you can't change the type of a variable in a static language, by default, but you can for example in C++ with a type like this:

http://en.cppreference.com/w/...

This was not what we were talking about, which you pretty well know.

So why the nitpicking?

So conclusion: porting a few million lines of existing JavaScript code to webassembly, does not make much sense. Especially not, if that new light weight JavaScript specialized VM: is much faster.

Obviously you can run the V8 JavaScript engine on webassembly instead of running it as a native C/C++ program that happens to interpret/compile JavaScript. But guess what: C8 uses webassembly as its intermediate language and interprets/jits from there. So switching from a JavaScript runtime, that internally is based on webassembly, to another webassembly runtime with a compiler of JavaScript for that runtime ... makes only sense in rare cases.

So the guys who made this new one ... are probably using under the hood webassembly as well. I was looking for a webassembly runtime written in Dart, I would like to put it into an App I have. I wanted a fast and easy FFI to dart, so one based on C/C++ is at the moment not a straight forward option.

Lets see ...

A Symbolics? Or a different one?

I only know the former. But never worked on anything that ancient.

Yes, again: your world is not the rest of the world.

Modern cars have charging times in minutes: to bad you country taxed them into oblivion.

So charging time is not argument, except for your personal use case. Who cares about that? I don't. I care about my use case. So ... do I run around and proclaim to the world that my use case should matter to the world? Nope ... it is a waste of time and energy.

"No it does not what"?

and the book you reference makes no mention of AGI
You should at least read the wiki article.

This book is the root of AGI. Dumpfbacke.

The Majourity of the world: can charge at home or at work.

Most parts of the world where EVs are sold: have no winter.

You are one of those brain dead idiots: if it is not good enough for you, it must suck for everyone. Sorry: they are excellent for everyone: except you.

You work at Walmart?
As fork lift driver?

Is it interesting?

Either he wanted to rework it and forgot it, or he wanted to put some shit on his employer, now former employer.
Some revenge shit.

It goes back to the early 1970s.
This book is from 1986 ... so I guess your 1990s is close enough: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

They do not need a network connection.

During chatting with an LLM bot, they are usually disconnected from the internet. They answer with the stuff they are trained on. Not by searching new things.

Pretty old school, perhaps in the 60s, one computer scientist said something like this: "You claim, a computer will never be able to do 'this'! (Or do it better than a human) And I build you one, which does exactly that!"

AGI used to be defined as passing the Turing Test,
Nope that never was the definition. Actually there is no definition at all.

Turing test means you can get into a conversation with a "chat bot" and can not guess it is a chat bot and not a human.

which large language models have done for a couple of years.
Correct.

What's the new test that AI is supposed to pass to be considered generally intelligent?
Sentient level reasoning.
Some of the current LLMs can reason, albeit only about 12 to 15 steps.

No, this threat is not talking about that.

YOU are talking about that.

This thread is about replacing a heavy weight node.js JavaScript runtime with a light weight faster runtime.

No one is going to port a million lines of code to a web assembly runtime. For what reason would anyone throw away decades of manpower production code to run on your favourite webassembly runtime?

You can do any and all stuff in a statically typed language. There are no limitations.

No you can't. Objects that do not have a common type ancestor, can be assign to each others variables, and hence you can not call each others methods. That was a no brainer ...
React dynamic to a method call in C++? Go write a framework, you certainly find odd people on the internet who will use it.

If you do not even know what static compilation means, then why post about your favourite runtime ???
