[Cialug] Firefox 80 & eBay

[Scott Yates]

I am a little troubled by WASM personally.  One of the strengths of the web
is the "view source" idea.  Being able to see how someone did something is
a VERY powerful idea, and current/modern JavaScript is VERY nice.  Having
everything compile to WASM on the web just feels like we are losing
something important.  I understand the arguments for it, and agree with
most of them.

I am sure I will recant this position after it happens though.  Hell, I was
wrong about Youtube and Twitter, so what the hell do I know?
