The funny thing is, I support the crap out of that. I'm really excited about Web Assembly, which seems like the path to that.
See, that's a perfect example of how the web platform is supposed to evolve: It's a genuinely new feature that allows you to do things in the browser you couldn't do before.
Shadow DOM is another example of a new tech that allows basic access to a fundamentally new power. It can't come soon enough.
I'm not saying the web shouldn't evolve. I just think people who are trying to turn it into Ruby are not helping.
