Wow! I’ve been thinking about how a WebAssembly runtime in CloudABI would be an awesome “write once, run everywhere” thing… turns out the Cranelift developers are already looking into CloudABI! Awesome!

Cool ARM laptop news that I missed somehow:

the cause of custom EFI binaries not running on Windows-on-Snapdragon laptops was found: it was alignment. Now GRUB works. (Still, Qualcomm firmware is very weird, you’re always in a hypervisor, the ACPI implementation has some very strange quirks and uses PEPs.)
the Panfrost driver for Mali GPUs now runs Weston!
