The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) recently announced that the WebAssembly Core Specification is now an official web standard. Following HTML, CSS and JavaScript, WebAssembly thus becomes officially the fourth language to run natively in browsers. Coming soon: a brand new collection of malware to guard against

Did they do this because there is someone in the world who is actually crazy enough to want to work with WebAssembly, or as a paid advertisement?

Unity compiled to WASM is the replacement for Flash for in browser games.
It's no worse an idea than writing a game in flash was.

Well, I think if you combine HTML+CSS you get a turing complete, but independently I am not sure. Anyhow, if your you got javascript on hand and still using HTML+CSS as programming languages, you might be doing something wrong.

Microsoft developers keep plugging away at the "huge technical challenge" of duplicating the Windows Forms designer found in the aging, Windows-only .NET Framework in .NET Core, the new open-source, cross-platform default approach for .NET coding. If only there was some code lying around they could use
I'm assuming they are, so that's why I don't see how it's a 'huge technical challenge'

WinForms is not "Windows-only", it runs without any complaints under Linux, and probably every device that Mono supports. And "aging" here means "well tested and proven, under fire", instead of the experimental UI's MS is pushing these days and abandoning twice as fast.

Scientists say the unexplained rogue waves and high winds mean we are “missing something really fundamental in our standard models of the Sun.” Maybe if they shone a really bright light on it?
For those in the UK and west coast of the US/Canada, they didn't discover "sunshine".

Oh, that's just ridiculous!
They can give us huge volumes of detail about planets, black holes, and other celestial bodies that are umpty-bazijillion light years away, but they don't know anything about our own Sun?
... Or is it just that, with a celestial body that's so close to us, fact-checking becomes a serious threat to their statements?

No, it just means that the model of the sun works fine for the gross elements (surface temperature, mass-luminosity ratio, etc.), but needs modification for the new data discovered. It may mean that a "steady state" (== no major changes occur in the sun) model is wrong, and the sun must be treated as a variable star.
It remains to be seen how much of this is applicable to other stars - do they also vary on very short periods, or are they more stable?

It's not even that much of a surprise. PSP was build because we don't have a good understanding of what heats the corona and powers the solar wind.
