If we're vulgar materialists, then it follows that there is no free will, and thus no reason to advocate for societal change.

No free will doesn't imply no change. Lifeless systems evolve over time, take rock formation as an example, it was all cosmic dust at some point. So no, even if we do accept that there is no free will that shouldn't mean perfect stasis

Yeah, I can totally see pet projects done with this, it would be relatively simple to understand by others, and you can get to know your project through and through.

have no package manager and encourage less code reuse as a shared value

Also, its main goal is understandability, but some stdlib is written in assembly. I mean, this looks like a nice but very niche language, for some small endeavours maybe?

So, if you worked on it first, do you get a discount for watching and helping, because it doesn't add up?

That's almost as good as the ones that limit password on the sign-in UI, but not on the sign-up

I've toyed with WASM, creating a simple sudoku page, and it did take an empty page, added all the buttons, and then changed them upon user interaction.

I think, I also heard of the DOM modification limitations, but it's not a hard barrier afaik, there are just some cases where it can't

But still, doing something in (pure) WASM looks way harder than needed to me

A language usually doesn't become worse with time, at least if the devs do a good job at improving it.

There are cases of new languages that looked better but didn't become mainstream because the ecosystem requires time to grow (and adoption, which creates a vicious cycle because adoption requires ecosystem to already be there)

Just for the sake of being contrary, I know that there are still machines running on punch cards in some army-related places, where not changing anything is mandatory. I wouldn't be surprised if hot-wiring is also still there somewhere, it's just mostly running without changes.

To this I completely agree, a lot of people don't want to use the tools for the benefit of the future colleagues or even self

And the blame has those commit messages. That is beside the fact that most authors may not even work there anymore
