<dvn>you can manage the battery charging with the OS. eg. with tpm

<jfred>ArneBab: the phone that I'd likely use for this personally is a Librem 5, since it already runs Linux and is known to be able to run without a battery in IIRC. haven't measured how much power it draws though

<jfred>(but I'm interested in the topic in general, not just on my specific hardware... most people don't have Librem 5s lying around, lol)

<ArneBab>jfred: sounds interesting

<ArneBab>I got the load time for the hoot repl down to 135ms on Firefox with cold caches an 355 ms on Chromium: https://www.draketo.de/software/repl.html -- Note that disabling the cache on chrome wrecks the preloading.

<ArneBab>The reference repl is at 2.36s on Firefox and 1.77s on Chromium: https://files.spritely.institute/embeds/hoot-0.8.0-repl/

<ArneBab>Main changes: enable compression for wasm (download 1.3 MB instead of 6.6 MB) and preload the wasm files so they don’t get loaded sequentially.

<ArneBab>(the preloading needs a nasty fetch-hack to work)

<ArneBab>To avoid the fetch-hack, Scheme.load_main would need a way to pass changed default fetch arguments.

<ArneBab>if I understand the code correctly, reflect.js::fetch_and_instantiate needs an option like fetchopts = {} that’s passed to instantiate_streaming.

<kestrelwx>Hi! I think the website is missing an icon for bookmarks, tabs and whatnot.
