@calmyourtities haha the idea got dropped cause using php was too slow for kernel dev due to each script having to be interpreted at runtime along with the safety checks that were required. And before the PHP sucks people show up this is true with any interpreted language including python. Which is the reason c and assembly are the languages of choice for os development
-
@PerfectAsshole OK NEW APPROACH. I'LL START WRITING THE SCRIPTS, YOU BUILD A COMPILIER. USER GRUB AND START AT REGISTER 0XCAFEBABE OR SOMETHING

Get after it. My days of screwing around with os development is long over. But a php compiler... sounds legit, especially since i see a java link on that tutorial page. -
@PerfectAsshole I'VE LOOKED AT JS WITHOUT THE S TUTORIAL AND YOU CAN'T DO IT. BUT C# YOU CAN. TOO BAD C# WILL NEVER COMPARE TO PHP THE GOD OF ALL PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES

I made a really simple java os once but it was such a shit idea that i just stopped

C0D4669447yI can live with the phpOS.
Where do I sign up?
Except running an entire os with a scripted language is gonna be hell slow.. maybe windows slow even π -
i once heard a js fanboy say the same "the future is js even for operating systems" ... mmmmmkay
-
@linuxxxxxx the future is webassembly, bytecode in the browser. With wasm you could run an operation system and crysis in the browser.

@heyheni Shouldn't WebGL be sufficient for that purpose?
I'm pretty sure, graphics are the bottleneck for Crysis. -
@theCalcaholic sorry for beeing a dick but since when does something suffice in tech? π
