In rust's case part of that is that LLVM is very C optimized. It's not great at taking advantage of the more strict rules of rust yet. It is getting better though.

Is there some explanation for why this person does not like WASI?

Cap'nProto Is so much better. Really a lot are, but Cap'nProto is main by the original protobuff dev so his description of why he made it is relevant. I use protobuff everday at work and honestly the generated code is incredibly awful conpared to pretty much any alternative. We're way to bought in to switch now though sadly.

If you find the quality of ddg results lacking, I know I did, they are basically just a bing wrapper after all, then give Kagi a shot. It's a subscription service search engine, but in my opinion it's more than worth the cost, especially for programming queries

I reponsed to a similar comment hete earlier, I've reproduced that below, maybe that will give some context:

I don't have much hope for it, I know several people that worked for amazon lumberyard (it's old name), that have quit because that organization is collapsing in on itself, losing engineers way faster than they can hire, and the engine is still buried under a mountain of tech debt inherited from Cryengine (that real Cryengine has resolved a long time ago)

One quit because the new render was so performance intensive, an rtx 2080 super was min spec for the lightest of scenes to achieve 60fps.

Another because he became the last engineer on his team after all the others quit and moved elsewhere at Amazon.

Even hoping open source saves it is unlikely, as it's only in name. The CI and infrastructure to meaningfully develop it open source does not exist.

As a final nail, the install process takes over two hours, which is just not competitive.

There is none, one of the main objectives of WASM was to be a machine agnostic bytecode, similar to JVM bytecode for example. People have even built wasm VMs on FPGAs

It's unfortunate that it's not available for Firefox mobile, for me at least, mobile is where I want translation. For example when traveling and viewing the sites of businesses

Not really that "pre" in their case, it's in a reaction to an existing crisis

I don't think that's what they sre saying, I think they sre saying it's stupid Microsoft requires hoops for such a basic feature, hence "Fix Windows" being option 1

Yeah, I've done a lot with SDF, and I don't know what they mean. I guess SDFs and ordering are tengentially related..
