The idea is it would be lightweight (so just a few megabytes of libraries) and give the same functionality you get with an android webview (so send it html to load and javascript to run and get json results back). I know there are quite a f

I know its a tangent, but the idea that maybe ripping out android webview into a standalone cross platform project in its own right pops into my head everytime this problem arises. Keep meaning to check if anyones actually done it already.

The best language for game logic is lua, switching to C# probably isnt going to help any.... IMHO.

wow, what's the downsides to this? It feels like it could be one of the biggest leaps in programming in a long time, does it keep rusts safety aspects? How does it compare with say openCL?

Our lawyer attended Harvard as a postgrad and this idiocy makes him ashamed he did so, so much he took it off his linkedin profile so as not to be associated with them. Don't know how much he paid for it, but cant imagine it was cheap.
