WasmGC is coming to GraalWasm, unlocking the power of JVM garbage collectors for #WebAssembly! This will also get GraalWasm a lot closer to implementing the full Wasm 3.0 spec. Join @ssmith.bsky.social and me at @jfokus.se next month to learn more: www.jfokus.se/talks.html?s...

I'm really looking forward to @jfokus.se which is coming up soon! It's always a great conference and you might still be able to find tickets so you can join @fniephaus.com and me as we sail our longship to the mysterious lands of #WebAssembly and @graalvm.org.

I have essentially that, but the bootstrap to virtual required the Telo device. I think hardware is how they actually make money. You just need someone in the States to plug it in while you activate your account! 😉

I transferred my old landline to Ooma after a friend gave me an old physical Telo box--no need to even have it plugged in. I treat it like an answering machine.

Updated my Tiny Java Containers demo for @graalvm.bsky.social for JDK 23 and compared default (-O2) optimization vs. the new -Os (for size) option and got great results! Optimizing for size: 💥 ~43% smaller executables 💥 13%-46% smaller container images github.com/graalvm/graa... #docker #java
