@ariadne @lina i ship an FPGA toolchain in the browser. it can* use multithreading. it needs to know how many threads to run to not contend on resources uselessly
* currently not built in that configuration for a variety of reasons that is not specifically tied to the web
@whitequark @ariadne @lina Uh - cool, but it tells me "web assembly JSPI is not enabled". After enabling it in Firefox' about:config, it still says it's not enabled. Any ideas?

@whitequark @mcc @ariadne @lina Flatpak has a bunch of permissions one can grant, just saying ...
@hruske @whitequark @mcc @ariadne @lina
yeah and everything just gets full read write access to your home directory making because devs are lazy and body cares -
very cool. this is why i hate the modern web.
@ariadne oh that's nothing. Check this out

@hruske @whitequark great, now you can ship your app to… desktop Linux users (but NOT to Ubuntu systems which are the most common ones)

@hruske flatpak takes granular permissions but it does not make them usable. Unless you expect the user to understand what "uses a legacy window system" means in terms of permissions. Sandboxing isn't easy, nor is seamlessly injecting permission prompts into applications which weren't designed for it, but the actually hard part is the permissions model. It needs to somehow be comprehensible by ordinary folks, while not overly constricting for 'power users'.

@whitequark @ariadne @lina why is webrtc locked behind the microphone permission. i know what the web browsers *claim* is the answer to this question but imo the real reason is that they set out to make a fully granular permissions model, immediately discovered that had downsides, and have been backpedaling ever since
(I acknowledge the fully granular model is what works best for your goal of shipping an FPGA programmer)
@mcc @whitequark @ariadne @lina I haven't really paid attention to what android and apple are doing these days, but i think a lot of this would be solvable by having some permissions be aggregates. e.g. "The web page wants to get the video calling and streaming permissions (fine print: which expand to blah blah blah and blah)". You unfortunately can't really let the application control the aggregate, but I think you could do a good job of simplifying the common use-cases for both apps and users.

@Abstract_Bit già.
A onor del vero, è stato quasi sempre lo stesso, chiunque fosse al potere negli ultimi 20-30 anni, tranne, a memoria, cose minori. Potrei ricordarmi male però.

Today I turn 50. But don't worry, I learnt dealing with myself.
Mentally shaken, physically proven, spiritually unaddicted.
But I'm starting enjoying to be alive.

@jaredwhite longtime fan of your podcasts, Jared! I still keep "Just a Spec" in my podcast app wishing for new episodes 🤗

@krans@mastodon.me.uk That's a real and legitimate grievance, but it's a different argument from the one we were having.
Your employer using LLM translation to cut costs on documentation for a massive Korean customer (while having the resources to do it properly) is a decision made by someone with power, to save money, at the expense of Korean users. That's worth being angry about.
But I'm an individual trying to participate in a public conversation. I can't hire a personal interpreter every time I want to respond to a post. The choice I actually face is: use available tools, or stay silent. Those aren't the same situation, and the same tool can mean very different things depending on who's holding it and why.
If anything, your example reinforces the point. The problem isn't the tool, but it's who gets to decide when it's “good enough.”
