Baby steps, but we will eventually get to reactive-brainfuck.

I've already filed a patent for BaaS (Brainfuck as a service), so don't even think about it guys. I'm in it for the long run ;)

That's funny because I already had this patent describing:

"Combination of Brainfuck with paper mediums for transmission to location for processing, storage, distribution, and archiving of said combinations."

If you made a Brainfuck patent, you need to write me a check.

I can verify: he mentioned it in the thread on the sigtbd parallel brainfuck CPU paper (and yes, that was real: you can look it up).

...Wait, wrong patent. Nevermind.

Still funny though.

...Well than you'd sue me when I testified accurately on the stand, and that would hardely be ideal, now would it?

Ok but first we should rewrite the kernel in brainfuck. No, really.

All someone has to do is write a JS->brainfuck transpiler and we could have this.

I'd really like to see that. I'm eager to build a small program that takes style offenses like nested ternary operators and replaces them with a still functional brainfuck equivalent, to highlight how anoying that style of programming is to read.

Thats hilarious lol Or some of those rediculously dense ruby one liners could fit the bill too.

How about one where style pages via bf->js->sass->css

I mean yeah but this is javascript. Only 3 phases of transpilation is for noobs.

brainfuck->typescript->es6->via babel->es5->postCss plugins->sass->css->transpiled to react components->transpiled to an Angular 2 project->to webcomponents->transpiled to ArnoldC language->transpiled to a Turing complete Shopify liquid template-> commonjs and browserified->rails sprocket pipeline->then piped to /dev/null

It's not easy being a Javascript Ninja/Rockstar.

the pipe to /dev/null made it all worth it

Waiting for serverless brainfuck
Re:Show HN: A partial HTTP server written in brainfuck exten... by Artemix on Friday December 09, 2016 @11:46AM (#13139812)
And maybe a brainfuck framework to develop cross-platform apps
