    I don't like the way it is presented as an achievement in wasm-conversion and at the same time presenting the psychological bad state of the origin author and making fun of him by stating like: "if it's slow, it's not my fault, it's the CIA".

    This is beyond resepectless and shameless to the bones. I don't care about that converted code, what i see is an embarresment.

    The specific video is also picked for that reason: to let the deceased developer look bad and make fun of him.

    Another clear example that intellectual capacity or intelligence does not develop ethics or compassion as a byproduct on the way - or even was to expect from a developer these days.

    At least, the author didn't camouflage anything and stands straight up with that attitude in front of the rest of the world.

      I disagree, as a programmer having my code being used long after I am gone would be a great honor.

      I believe the linked video is Terry's last video that is why its so special.

      There is a whole sub-culture, cult following lore around TempleOS, some of us used to watch the live-streams when Terry was coding in real time. Terry appreciated it and even when he was homeless, he tried very hard to reach his audience.
