> since network, cpu's, and memory sizes are going to continue to improve. As the article mentions, the drastic speed improvement that JIT gave us let us build even bigger, more complex web apps. Maybe things will continue to get bigger and more complex and we'll need wasm, or maybe wasm will allow us to build apps not possible now. > I've found that even the most aggressively minified uber-scripts can be pretty printed and studied. I haven't found this to be the case. Most minifiers rename variables to one-letter, which makes any moderately-complex web app unreadable, or at least not very fun. Furthermore, I don't think that technically requiring source-code distribution for execution is really the solution - Open Source is a social problem at root, not technical. I, for one, welcome the possibilities.
