Why Google Sheets ported its calculation worker from JavaScript to WasmGC: https://lnkd.in/dyYvzuiH. Calculations in Google Sheets were initially done on the server, then on the client in JavaScript, and now on the client in WebAssembly Garbage Collection 🗑️. This case study explains how and why 📈. #Wasm #WasmGC #WebAssembly

I was offered a free BenQ LaptopBar [1] in exchange for an honest review that focuses on the following aspects: * Unboxing and setup experience The LaptopBar came in a box that included the various parts as you can see in the attached photo. I was a little confused about the magnetic stickers. I eventually understood that only one is needed and that the other is meant for a second device. Assembling was quite intuitive and the battery was charged about 70% so it was ready to go, but actually meaningfully changing the settings like the brightness and the color temperature required a quick glance at the manual. After that it was all clear, though. * Why do people need a laptop light, and how can LaptopBar help? I use my laptop mainly at home, so I can make sure my light setup is good. I can imagine the light to be very useful when moving around in the house, for example, when I want to work on the terrace or the balcony, or when actually on the road. The travel case makes sure the device is protected. I'm a little afraid that the battery and the light might get scratched, because there's not really a separation of the two when in the case. To be seen. Since the LaptopBar has a stand in form of the battery pack and an arm, I was actually using it for reading without disturbing my significant other too much. An unexpected secondary use case. * Overall review on LaptopBar Would I buy [2] a LaptopBar? I might, especially if some of the quirks get fixed. For example, I would have liked a wider dimmable range to make the light darker (for the bed time reading use case). It's a bit annoying that when the light is connected to the battery pack it constantly shows the battery status, which consumes battery. To be seen how often I run out of power in practice, but so far the device is still on the first charge. I'm also a little afraid that the magnetic sticker doesn't come off without leaving glue marks, but BenQ promises it won't. All in all, I give the LaptopBar a solid 4/5 star rating and want to thank BenQ Corporation for letting me test the product. ——— [1] https://lnkd.in/dvwFB-Ny [2] https://lnkd.in/dGhhmyAY #BenQLaptopBar #BenQLighting #DontSettle
