  • How to manage state on the Rust side when using WASM?
    2 projects | /r/rust | 4 Mar 2022
    You can only block a web worker thread; blocking in the main thread is not allowed by browser vendors. If you want to synchronize two web workers, you can use the std primitives like Mutex and compile with atomics. If you want to synchronize the main thread and a web worker, you need to build this yourself. I have implemented this in one of my code bases (https://github.com/allusion-app/Allusion/blob/master/wasm/masonry/src/sync.rs) but the code is GPL licensed. Note this particular code only works in browsers that support Atomics.waitAsync. An alternative is to wrap a worker.onmessage callback in a Promise and await that. Also statics are used because I don't want the overhead of calling receive from JavaScript back to Rust in the web worker, not that they are required.
  • Anybody doing WASM state management in Rust?

    One idea that could work out is to move state management to a web worker and state changes are just messages between the main thread and web worker (JS example with Redux + React + Comlink. The Redux and Comlink would be reimplemented in Rust (requires atomics, WASM intrinsics and however Redux works). However, using atomics is not so nice. Atomic.waitAsync has so far been only stabilized in Chrome last time I used it and the Rust std library has no equivalent, so you still have to call that from Rust. I've implemented something similar to a channel/spinlock but with statics (github source).

    None of these lists ever seem to be as fleshed out, up to date, or well organized as https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted , though imo any more attention on the self hosted scene is awesome. We're now self hosting everything at my co-op, and it's a dream. Saves us money, provides learning opportunities, potentially is getting us work (managed hosting providers asking if we can be a devshop for their clients, for example), and lets us give back to the FOSS community as we uncover bugs.

    We use:

    * Matrix / Synapse for comms (slack alternative) (managed hosting through etke.cc)

  • Home Lab Guide

    There are a ton of resources about HW aspects of home labs for beginners but not so much for what to run on them and why. There are lists like https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted but they are confusing for absolute beginners like me. Are there any good SE project guides you know?

  • I turned my open-source project into a full-time business

    I've always felt like FOSS as a philosophy has been tangled up in trying to participate effectively in capitalism, when that was never really the point, nor really very possible unless you're lucky, nor really worth it. The origin of FOSS as I understand it from reading books like "Hackers" is from people that were mad that access was being restricted to systems and code from people that really wanted to use these systems and code, and hack them, and learn from them. I recall that one of the things Stallman likes to brag about from that time is not related to FOSS at all, but instead successfully decrypting a bunch of passwords, emailing the decrypted passwords to people, and recommending they instead set the password to an empty string instead. It was about keeping access to the system Free as in Beer.

    I suppose some have argued that FOSS represents a Public Commons in the way that fields and wells and physical markets used to, but none of those things survived capitalism, so I don't see why a technological commons should be expected to either.

    For me I've been thinking lately that perhaps those interested in FOSS should instead consider how we can use FOSS to detach ourselves from needing to participate in global capitalism at all. Is there FOSS technology we can use to liberate people from things they need to spend money on right now? An example could be the Global Village Construction Set: https://www.opensourceecology.org/gvcs/ a set of open source designs for things like hydraulic motors or microcombines or steam engines that you can build on your own, usually not for cheap, but for far, far cheaper than you could buy from John Deere. Here's another cool project, some guy has just been building things like solar panels and basic circuit boards on his property from very base components for years: https://simplifier.neocities.org/

    Some other FOSS liberation examples:

    Combining a tool like Jellyfin with Sonarr, Radarr, and etc, can liberate people from their 5 different media subscriptions. Or at least they can still buy DVDs and put them on Jellyfin to have the convenience of streaming with the media library of their own choosing.

    Deploying Matrix or another FOSS communication tool can let organizations have enterprise-level communication software without paying HUGE seat-based license fees to corporations like Slack.

    In fact there's many ways to liberate yourself from paid SaaS in this list: https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted at my co-op we self-host and deploy all our services for this reason, it saves us a TON of money.

    I don't have many other examples to mind because this is something I'm actively still researching. Friends in Venezuela though especially tell me how FOSS technology can liberate in ways I wouldn't expect here with my 64gb RAM machine with the latest processor, that I can easily replace components on on a whim. Such as how they can keep all their broken down machines pieced together from junkyards running pretty ok on various linux distros, and how they can sell creative work using free tools like gimp (no, really) or darktable. Like as not they'll just pirate software, though, but apparently FOSS often runs better on shitty hardware.

    Anyway my long term plan is to find or build more and more things that let people just not spend money on things anymore. That could be by making it easier to not have to throw things away anymore, or building tools to replace proprietary ones, or, idk, other ways I haven't thought of.
