These kinds of comparisons rarely lead to good discussions. Let's instead be focused and talk about real stuff. Consider https://learnpythonthehardway.org/ for example. It has influenced a generation of Python developers. Not just the main website, but the tons of Python code and Python-related content it inspired. Why would anyone write these kinds of textbooks/websites/guides if AI can replace them? Arguibly,... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

Try this instead: https://learnpythonthehardway.org/ LLMs will give you an uncertain percentage of wrong answers. It’s like having a teacher that lies to you and doesn’t know when they are lying and has zero understanding of the information they give you. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

Basic Python Knowledge: Ensure you have a solid understanding of Python basics. Resources like Python.org and Learn Python the Hard Way are great starting points. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

Also, I haven’t looked at it in a super long time but personally I got started with Python using https://learnpythonthehardway.org after originally training to be an artist and ended up having a pretty successful career in Pipeline instead. Source: over 3 years ago

Technically WASI 0.1, but I used it (via Extism[0]) to implement a simple login library[1] that works in Rust, Go, and Node. Would be trivial to add other lanugages supported by Extism. Overall I loved the dev experience. [0]: https://extism.org/ [1]: https://github.com/lastlogin-net/DecentAuth. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

I tinkered with https://extism.org and basically the use case is that they suggest, namely you can extend software in another programming language but without having to setup a container or VMs on the client. They "just" run the code in the browser and it can be JavaScript, sure, but can also be Python, Go, whatever. It's quite specific though as I'm working on support programming in the browser. If you are not... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

Check out https://extism.org, it is built for those kinds of use cases. However I think WASI and components could enhance it. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

Is this Extism, but running as a service? https://extism.org/ It seems to me that a key feature of Extism is host functions (which can be called from the sandbox). But maybe I'm not comparing apples to apples? - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

If the code is gonna be written by LLMs anyway skip the js, directly use wasm and allow any language that compiles to it with something like https://extism.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
