    Cool! Awesome! New MIT grads playing with JS who think "this whole deep learning thing is pretty neat"! Most "normal" humans -- and application developers -- will just see this as …

    Haha... LOL... WTF... JS is such a silly scripting language, that ends up in such silly places (web pages, electron apps). I mean, its probably utterly impossible that it will revo…

    Unless you can put the [little used] HTML5 FileSystem API into full-effect, by creating a full-blown Unix-like operating system (complete with a desktop environment) that runs insi…

    I love this! When I read "web development" in the title, I thought more along the lines of developing the web, as a singular, cooperative, world-embracing entity, rather than simpl…

    I just don't have a phone. I talk to people's faces all the time. (Especially really hot girls.) Weird, I know!

    Can anybody tell me if they can play the game, with a USB gamepad or without? Can anybody break 100,000? My highest score playing this on the site has been around 85,000 (my highes…

    You can play my favorite arcade game ever in a wasm gameboy emulator (credit goes to Ben Smith of Google: https://github.com/binji/binjgb ) in a web-based OS I've been working on f…

    I've survived as a solo dev for the past decade by driving cabs, living on the streets (mainly West LA/Santa Monica), dumpster diving, etc, and now its starting to pay off as I con…

    I was right there a year or two ago developing portable native client things for my project, Linux on the Web (I was able to get vim and python running). Projects like that can pio…

    The existence of this project says that JS is supposed to be taken as a very serious programming language now. But what, exactly, is it that is so serious that JS can be used for, …

    A brand new kind of [nearly] POSIX compliant shell can be found here, in a little project called "Linux on the Web" (requires Chrome): https://linuxontheweb.appspot.com The main JS…
