The language did a pivot ... it was originally a very functional oriented language written in #Ocaml.
#Ur / #Urweb — http://www.impredicative.com/ur/ — a functional oriented language that copies some features from Standard ML ( #SML ), #Haskell, and #Ocaml and has libraries for web-related features.
Looking at their sites, it looks like Opa has a more updated site and possibly a more updated language (though there was a release of Ur this year).
I’ve watched them on and off for several years. -

Turn off #JavaScript, so their paywall stops working. -

Turn off #JavaScript / #JabbaShit and their “turn off your adblocker” garbage won’t interfere.
There are still a number of places where I saw “underfunded and ineffective”, but this is someone that worked there (possibly during the time when Trump is said to have shut down PRT). -

I was going to set up #Pleroma, but the PleromaFE interface has too much #JavaScript / #JabbaShit piled up ... It causes my browsers to repeatedly pop up warnings about a hung script.
Consider it a testing instance for the time being

> You could imagine servers being pure data API endpoints and the GUI being handled locallyFor sure. I touched on another way to think about it here:
https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/@strypey/103791277016958320What it comes down to is that #Javascript is an excellent way for newbie developers to make their code run on other people's computers without having to pass any of the security review it would require to be installed natively. Which is exactly as bad as it sounds ;)

Note: this is hosted on WIX, so I had to disable styles in order to view the article text. (I suppose there's some #JavaScript / #JabbaShit that re-enables viewing and scrolling, but I'm not about to turn on #JS for a #WIX site.) -

Strypey (strypey)'s status on Friday, 21-Feb-2020 22:33:02 UTC Strypey Perhaps because #Javascript is usually deployed by web designers, not software engineers or sysadmins. Designers who are given with minimal to no maintenance budget, if they're even retained by the client after they deliver a website design. In practice, JS is a hot mess of known bugs and security holes, running on your browser without you knowledge or consent (unless you use #NoScript etc).

In fact, it was painful to use. If PleromaFE wasn't packing so much #JabbaShit that it could choke a pornstar, I'd encourage Mastodon admins to switch software to Pleroma. #JavaScript -

Under any kind of a constrained system (slow processor or limited RAM), you'll have difficulties. I routinely receive Firefox & Palemoon pop-ups about hung scripts. -

This one: https://jsish.org/fossil/jsi/doc/ckout/md/Home.md
(Also considering #Lua and !tcltk. Maybe I'll start with all three and see which one gets farther faster.) -

Their site is #JavaScrippled, so unless one allows some completely random site to run #JavaScript ( #JabbaShit ) in your browser, you'll never see it.
Too bad, too! Their article on integrating #Tmux and #Vim sounds like it would be very much worth reading. https://www.bugsnag.com/blog/tmux-and-vim ... until you remember the "unknown site wants to run JS" aspect. -

Usually #Dillo works fine (layout is a little funky, but the article content is still readable). -

Someone is surprised that users are hostile to the idea of mining currency on their computers without their express permission? (Yet another reason not to allow #JabbaShit / #JavaScript to run by default. #NoScript) -
