Arm co-founder: Sale to Nvidia would be a disaster

Source: Hacker News

Article note: I'm right there too. nVidia is, historically, exceptionally terrible at playing with others, and the whole charm/value of ARM is that everyone can license high quality agreed upon designs.

Kosmonaut: web browser from scratch in Rust

Source: Hacker News

Article note: As always with these, and discussed in the HN thread, even before the EME bullshit, the problem with the web is that it has been overtaken with absurd complexity and legacy burden, making it effectively impossible to actually build clean implementations. I don't know exactly what a cleaner, smaller, web would look like (and gemini is too minimal to be what I'd like to see), and I also don't know how to keep it small and stable and not accreting into another monstrosity, but it's a lovely dream.
