I really love that talk, but this is a bit of a stretch considering that it could apply to asm.js as well, which was available the year before the talk was recorded. Remember the unreal engine demo on Firefox?
- steveklabnik 9y agoYeah, that might be fair. I feel like Wasm is a pretty significant step over asm, and is much closer to the world presented in the talk, but it would also be 100% reasonable to just be talking about asm. Good point. (I was lucky enough to see the talk live, so the timeline of events gets a little messed up in my head sometimes...)
