  This really was a fantastic talk. Where can I read more about this kernel-level sandboxing that's discussed towards the end? Additionally: as I understand things, the methodology behind asm.js could (in principle) be applied to any JIT-ed language. Is the choice of doing this in JS only because JS is the language of browsers (i.e.: kernel-level sandboxing can easily use existing browser sandboxing code) or are there other technical considerations behind this decision?

  I have watched this talk on two occasions now. Gary Bernhardt is really a great speaker. I am curious has anyone subscribed to the screencasts at: https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/screencasts https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/screencasts It's a bit pricey at $29 dollars a month but if all of the content is as interesting, entertaining and thought provoking as this talk I could see it being worth the price. I would be curious to hear anyone's feedback.
