    Also, who said this was a business? I'm a goddamn 22-year-old webdev, I don't give a fuck about ethics or conservation or profit margins. My doomed project is the same goddamn proj…

    You do know what throttling and debouncing are right? Or do you need to take an actual computer science class?

    I'm sure it's entirely possible that I can run my application within the arbitrary limitations that you have set for me. I have a MongoDB and Express stack primarily. Sorry that I …

    God, would you shut up? Jesus, sorry to burst your bubble but people are running their damn CPUs no matter what I do. I heard that some people would prefer client-side mining to ad…

    It doesn't have to be visible. You can use display: none or whatever to hide it.

    That's the reason TPB is using Monero. It was specifically designed to be mined on consumer CPUs with little to no benefit to running on a GPU or ASIC.

    As it always is with cryptocurrency. It's not sustainable, but at the moment a wasm + WebGL solution is better than plain JS. That's all I meant.

    You don't know what my site requires, so you're assuming that whatever hosting you just randomly want to assume is sufficient is enough and so you can discredit my legitimate idea …

    None of that comment even close to makes sense. 1. My operating costs are more than $9/month. I don't know where you got that presumed feature but it's wrong. 2. There's nothing to…

    It's a card game simulator I have yet to publish. I don't really have a lot of money for server uptime, so it's either ads or this. And it won't be on by default. I'm simply offeri…

    PirateBay probably won't make any money. I'm considering adding this to an online game, which would probably generate a modest income. Video and social media sites could definitely…

    WebAssembly with OpenGL could change this.

    That's still JS. React Native doesn't get rid of JS, it just exposes native platform APIs to JS.

    All of this is possible without throwing out any existing technology (at least for Linux and Windows; if Apple doesn't envision a use case for something it's very likely never goin…

    I don't think that's necessary. WSL runs Linux binaries directly, it should use the host GPU just like any Windows program.

    Servo is a complete (although WIP) browser engine in Rust. Stylo is a project to plug the style parts of Servo into Firefox, which currently uses the Gecko browser engine. This is …

    I can't see how it would. The GPU has to be accessed either way, so doing it directly should be the same or better than through an OSX API.

    If you take over the entire thing yes. But the DAO hack demonstrates how easy it can be for an attacker to make off with a whole lot of ETH.

    Can't wait to see some of these ported to WebAssembly.

    I honestly don't understand what's special about this. It's an entire compile-to-JS language that just redoes what you can already do in JS. It's basically LevelDB (plus a few exis…

    I do this, or at least, I'm trying my hardest to. I use terminal interfaces to my usual sites like Reddit, Gmail, GitHub, Google, etc. A mouse button or keystroke opens links using…

    This arguably applies to a great many Google products and services. Google has enough resources to fling around that success and failure start to blur.

    It would be if it worked on anything except Ubuntu that is. Maybe a month ago when I tried it was different, but there was no amount of installing and tweaking I could do to get it…
