This is really cool! Is it the most beautiful program ever written? Not IMHO. I can't find it now, but there was a short live coding demo/presentation that essentially went from a blank file, to a stack-based language, to something like a webasm interpreter in like an hour with full explanations that made it all seem painfully obvious. It sent shivers up my spine and was absolutely amazing to watch.

- bane 5y agoOh man! Yup, that's exactly it! This was one of the most impressive and elegant demonstrations I've ever seen and I've been in computing since the 80s.
