You seem to frequently appear in threads involving WebAssembly. Each time you do, I see you point out how bytecode VMs have been done before. And, every time, it doesn’t contribute anything interesting to the conversation.
I don’t mean this in a hostile way, however, it has become frustrating finding this predictable and low effort comment from you every time I open an HN thread on WebAssembly — and, frankly, I’ve begun collapsing comments whenever I see your username.
Every iteration on the concept brings different approaches and tradeoffs made from lessons learned from previous attempts. This is just how engineering, and our industry, works.
I don’t mean disrespect. I assume you are probably speaking from a place of experience. I would be so much more interested hearing your thoughts on the minutiae than basic pattern recognition.
I recommend not engaging. I've tried once or twice, and when I shared a concrete example[0] of a real problem wasm solves for me that I'm not aware of another way to do, pjmlp just stopped responding. I'm not sure what their motivations are but it's too bad they choose to distract from someone's awesome project the person has spent years working on.
And yet you decided to spend around 5 minutes writing to me, instead of collapsing the comment.
Here is tip for you as well, learn from the past, before doing any kind of WebAssembly marketing of how innovative it happens to be, versus JVM as if there was never anything else done.
Yes, rather than ignore you, this time I chose to spend five minutes of my life writing a well meaning piece of critical feedback. Whether that was a waste of my time is left to you.

I can assure you it was a waste of your time.
