On this Tuesday and Wednesday, I joined the CyberSec conference in Taiwan.

And I listen to the talks about DevSecOps and Kubernetes security.

It's very helpful for me to have the tutorial guide about securing my DevOps flow :).

Interesting. I haven't done any WASM aside from a simple Rust tutorial and haven't touched Blazor. Maybe it's a limitation of WASM that it's not supposed to run in an extension.

I do not know if this is still the case and also if what they do is considered a good practice.

  var importObject = { imports: { imported_func: arg => console.log(arg) } };
