Show HN: 2.7KB Zig WASM – live globe showing executions at 300 CF edges (mcpaas.live)

It's really annoying that you can stop the globe from rotating. This also feels exactly like a Claude-built website, which is unsurprising.

"36 cities so far. Every visit lights up your dot."

You paid to patent this, whatever it is. How about more than two sentences to see what you're charging people for. I can't tell from the website's "About" page.

Edit: Even the github link is a 404, I give up.

WASM + Zig (even compiling C code) will make some really tiny WASM files with no dependencies. The problem is that you don't have a standard library, then your code gets really big as you add more of that in there.

Looking at the website of the organization [1] of the author, linked at the bottom of the submitted link, I get serious Time Cube [2] vibes.

I'm both fascinated and worried about what the internet will look like in five years.

What do you sell? Names? Names for what? Site is kinda laconic…

It there some law that mandates all 3D globe renderings auto rotate and omit any way to stop it?

Plus a 1.8 MB Javascript file ;)

...that's too big for a JS shim to talk to browser APIs... it looks more like a complete 3D engine - e.g. three.js or similar?

From that pov the 2.7 KB WASM is a bit misleading (or rather meaningless), it could be a single function call into that massive JS blob where all the work happens.

What in the slop? I have rarely seen so much of it concentrated across just a few domains

thanks for visiting — the globe just crossed 100 cities - Appreciate the feedback. Happy Sunday :)
