Browser need to come with a bytecode that would run into the local container on the local operating system running on the VM on another operating system running on top of real hardware, so we can finally have a true app platform.
- icebraining 9y agoWhat's your point, exactly? Shipping bytecode is essentially the leanest way you can achieve platform-independent code execution, no?
- rixed 9y agoMy point is that we could ship bytecode long before browser were even invented, therefore I doubt that the explosion of complexity is caused by us trying to solve that problem. This is easy to test: we just have to wait until we can ship byte code through the browser, and see how long it takes for another layer of abstraction missing some important feature to pop up on top of it.
