It’s good to be back. I let the old blog field lie fallow in order to focus on work in Ecma TC39 (JS standards), Firefox 3.5, 3.6 and 4; and recently on a new project that I’ll blog about soon.
In the mean time [UPDATE and in case the embedded video fails], here’s the video link from my JSConf 2010 surprise keynote in April. Highlights include:
- What would happen in a battle between Chuck Norris and Bruce Campbell
- Clips from Netsca^H^H^H^H^H^HEvil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness
- Discussion of where JS has been and what lies in its immediate future
True facts:
- I did meet John McCarthy of LISP fame in 1977
- My haircut was influenced by Morrissey’s (hey, it was the late ’80s)
- JS’s
