The Man Who Killed Google Search
It's April 23rd, 2024, and I am still looking for a good, reliable, honest and simple search engine.
All I want to do is search.
No AI.
No ads.
No shopping.
Please don't "Answer my question." I enjoy doing my own original research, thanks.
I'm entirely willing - wanting even - to pay for it.
Currently Kagi has my $, but I'm saddened and frustrated that they're not even focused on Search, they're focused on AI[1] and t-shirts.
Amazingly, in 2024, there is still a market opportunity for a good search engine.
It can't really just be me, can it?

Tesla Recalls All Cybertrucks for Faulty Accelerator Pedals
Most likely because there have been oodles of low-quality stories on these topics. We turned the flags off on this one since it maybe rises above the noise (see https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so... for past explanations on how we approach that).

Show HN: What Are You Working On?
Hey HN,
I'm sure you've seen the monthly "Ask HN: What Are You Working On?" headlines on [Hacker News](https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...).
Honestly, it's my favorite topic because it's packed with insights about what other hackers are up to.
I wondered what it would be like if instead of just a headline, there was a whole website where hackers could post daily updates, and where we could follow the hackers we're interested in for their latest updates. And so, this web site was born.
I hope it gets used frequently so we can all benefit from it together. I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Let me know what you think!

Not Apply to YC
I don't know what one thing you're referring to, but it's a core principle of HN to try to avoid repetition, and especially the repetition+indignation combo, which is the commonest and most tedious thing on the internet.

Moxie: I'm no longer involved at Signal
not sure. I searched comments: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastYear&page=0&prefix=fal...
Most recent are more culture wars stuff but some earlier ones appear to suggesting a degree of alignment with the USA government.

Don't Be Evil (Google)

Ask HN: Why are posts about the Gaza genocide being censored?
Many stories related to the ongoing famine and genocide in Gaza are tech-related: tech companies big and small are enabling Israel's military action in Gaza and in some cases directly supporting the occupation and genocide. The injustices of the real world are often played out again in cyber space, what some people have called a "digital apartheid".
This week, both Google and Amazon employees protested their company's involvement in this, and the stories relating to this were immediately removed from Hacker News front page. Why?
Why is HN flagging anything related to this topic?

Extism Makes WebAssembly Easy
Firecracker is a fine technology, but serverless companies have started taking advantage Wasm's faster start-up times for use cases of running Wasm on the server (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqgCxhPAao0). The deny by default security policy makes Wasm a great choice to run your code in isolation, particularly for maximizing hardware resources in the multi-tenant environments these serverless companies operate.
In the past few years, we have seen more use cases of Wasm emerge outside of the browser. JavaScript engines are now just a fraction of the total number of runtimes available. Wasmtime, Wasmer, WasmEdge, wazero are popular ones for non-browser use cases like blockchain, serverless, and edge computing (although Cloudflare uses V8's Wasm engine). WAMR is a popular one for cyber physical/IoT devices. There's a nice list here: https://github.com/appcypher/awesome-wasm-runtimes

I think [...] the "future of computing" is going to be [...] CISC. I’ve read of IBM mainframes that have [hardware instructions for] parsing XML [...]; if you had garbage collection, bounds checking, and type checking in hardware, you’d have fewer and smaller instructions that achieved just as much.
There's plenty of other ways to interact with Wasm, most of which are secure. (Wasmtime is the one I'm most familiar with, which is why I linked to it.)

Lunatic is an Erlang-inspired runtime for WebAssembly
Yeah, this is one of many non-browser runtimes, e.g. see https://github.com/appcypher/awesome-wasm-runtimes
Lunatic is more opinionated than most of these or node, though, in that it's trying to emulate a particular concurrent system design pattern borrowed from Erlang/BEAM.

What to learn in 2022
Now, the creation Bytecode Alliance, the development of multiple WebAssembly runtimes and the work of the W3C WebAssembly Community Group is why I belive it will get popular, but the capability-based security model is why I want it to get popular.

Ho Ho Ho, WasmEdge 0.9.0 is here!
⚖ I think it's really cool that a plugin author could compile their C++ to .wasm such that a single plugin binary can run on either Linux or Windows (don't need an x86 .dll, x64 .dll, x86 .so, x64 .so...) and in a sandbox (no arbitrary syscalls or Win32 calls, just the interfaces given to it), while still getting near native AOT speed. Though, it's hard to judge which one to choose from now with all the wasm engines that are available (https://github.com/appcypher/awesome-wasm-runtimes), with wasmtime or inNative being two others I've considered for my project. I'll definitely look into this one though, given it supports many of the newer proposals.

Why WebAssembly is innovative even outside the browser
Numerous native runtimes for webassembly already exist[0], with the current popular choices apparently being Wasmer[1] and Wasmtime[2].
All one would need to do (AFAIK) is ship a client for all major platforms, as is done with Electron (and web browsers themselves, and everything else.)
