Interesting talk. It got me to think about running a asm.js (or nowadays WebAssembly) on our company's OS... and here I wanted to do other things during my free day and the weekend :P But yeah, considering that the amount of transpilers to JS is increasing (I consider WebAssembly one as well) and Pas2JS is one after all as well I essentially do agree with the talk... (though avoiding the kernel kall overhead would probably mean to have the asm.js running in ring 0 as well and due to my work I've definitely come to like the advantages of a microkernel :/ ) Regards, Sven _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
