Java Virtual Machine in pure Node.js
Really cool hack, and yet I can't help but think that the mile-high software stack between the developer and the CPU continues to grow meaning we're stuck in a perpetual game of filling up spare CPU cycles with nothing in particular.<p>I'm sure I'll see a demo showing off something that barely runs on modern hardware that we were more than capable of running with good performance in 1990.<p><i>sigh</i> I feel like I'm being such a Debbie-downer even if this is a really cool hack.
