.tmux VS wasmtime

No I didn't condigure any of it and I"m using oh my tmux conf.

Oh my tmux! requires tmux 2.4+ and I would like to figure out what's oldest version of tmux people are actively using.

Here's a good source for more in-depth tuning .tmux.conf

Looks like no one has mentioned https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux

You still need to learn the basics but this lowers the learning curve a lot.

Totally! Lately (this last year or so) i am also using this on top of tmux https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux I don't knmow if you know it, its very close to the old configuration I worte myself, but with more colors :P

To get started with a decent tmux setup, start here: https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux

- [-] The journey has began at some time 2020 - [x] Getting boring with `atom`, `vscode`, `sublime`. Why? 1. Too slow on managing projects, each project takes **2GB** storage 2. `atom` and `vscode` are electron-based app, so it's heavy 3. Sublime is quite good, but heavily on indexing project's files - [x] Try `vim`, doing `vimtutorial`, getting struggled and ... struggled with the new ugly motions `hjkl` - [x] Few weeks passed, still getting struggled with vim - [x] Retried with `doom emacs`, but with vim bindings. Doom also supports many cool plugins - [x] Wao, `doom` is cool, project management is super cool, searching is blazing fast too - [x] Keep trying `doom`, for few weeks - [-] Then, getting boring with `doom`, it's basically emacs with vi-binding layer - [x] Retry `vim` with `bootstrap` [config](https://vim-bootstrap.com/) - [x] After ~2 months, the vim feeling is much better - [x] Add some plugins: `fzf`, session management, `grep/ack` search - [x] Add lsp [coc](https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim) - [x] Add/play with more plugins, yay yay yay !!! - [x] `tpope` plugins are such amazing - [x] Try `tmux`, hmm, quite good - [x] Use this awesome `tmux` [config](https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux) - [-] 2020-07-23 Start doing a personal dotfiles - [x] Keep using `vim` + `tmux` - [x] Move to `neovim` 0.4.0, then `0.5.0+` - [x] Start note-taking with `vimwiki`, then with other plugins - [-] Try `roam`, `obsidian` - [-] Stop using `vimwiki`, not sure what happened ??? Maybe boring mainly - [o] 2022-{01..06} Try other wiki tools, `taskwarrior`, `todoist`, and `orgmode` - [o] Still getting struggled on how to note-taking

And if you use tmux, https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux configures SSH integration for you.

I use this popular config. Running Ubuntu Server. I am using Git Credential Manager with pinentry-curses.

Just a documentation change, fortunately:

https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/commits?author=...

They've submitted little documentation tweaks to other projects, too, for example:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/overview/whats-new-cpp...

I don't know whether this is a formerly-legitimate open source contributor who went rogue, or a deep-cover persona spreading innocuous-looking documentation changes around to other projects as a smokescreen.

WebAssembly is extremely portable. WebAssembly runs on: all major web browsers, V8 runtimes like Node.js, and independent Wasm runtimes like Wasmtime, Lucet, and Wasmer.

When you say wasm container, you mean something like wasmtime that provides a non-browser wasm runtime?

https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime

We can't run this directly from the command line unless we install some runtime like wasmtime:

The roadmap I linked above. The WASI folks have done a poor job at communicating, no doubt, but I'm surprised someone like yourself literally building a competitor spec isn't following what they are doing closely.

Just for you I did some googling: see here[0] for the current status of WASI threads overall, or here[1] and here[2] for what they are up to with WASI in general. In this PR[3] you can see they enabled threads (atomic instructions and shared memory, not thread creation) by default in wasmtime. And in this[4] repository you can see they are actively developing the thread creation API and have it as their #1 priority.

If folks want to use WASIX as a quick and dirty hack to compile existing programs, then by all means, have at it! I can see that being a technical win. Just know that your WASIX program isn't going to run natively in wasmtime (arguably the best WASM runtime today), nor will it run in browsers, because they're not going to expose WASIX - they're going to go with the standards instead. so far you're the only person I've met that thinks exposing POSIX fork() to WASM is a good idea, seemingly because it just lets you build existing apps 'without modification'.

Comical you accuse me of being polarizing, while pushing for your world with two competing WASI standards, two competing thread creation APIs, and a split WASM ecosystem overall.

Thanks for the question!

Spin could definitely run in more places than what we have pre-built binaries for. Specifically, we could run on all platforms Wasmtime supports today (https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/releases/tag/v1...), including RISC and S390X, for example.

And while we have been experimenting a bit with running Spin on RISC, we haven't really had the bandwidth or requirement to build a production build for those yet.

Are you interested in a specific operating system or CPU architecture? Would love to understand your scenario.

> I used to think we'd eventually get to capability based security, but now I see we'll always be stuck with application permission flags, the almost worthless bastard cousin, instead.

My hope is that WASI will introduce capability based security to the mainstream on non-mobile computers [0] - it might just take some time for them to get it right. (And hopefully no half-baked status-quo-reinforcing regressive single—runtime-backed alternatives win in the meantime.)
