I remember rendering "ntreal" on an SGI workstation back in the '90s, it took about two days and I remember watching the individual pixels appearing and looking at all the details.
I just did it again and it took about 10 seconds and I'm like, "meh, next"
You'd think they'd have some different demos now...
I guess all the people that use JavaScript for fun on GitHub are morons?
There's an old saw about "millions of flies..." that might be applied here.
The number of diners doesn't always reflect the quality of the cuisine.
...with the help of the media.
I think I see a flaw in your cunning plan.
Dart2JS generetes 40% less JS code than it previously did.
Is that good or bad?
If it used to generate code that was megabloated then trimming it down to merely 'humongous' isn't much use.
No, you can definitely sue them.
Winning...? That's another question.
my shit is utterly uninteresting.
That doesn't make it OK for them to spy on the entire nation.
You may not personally mind being groped by the TSA either, but that doesn't make it OK for them to grope people who might be traumatized by it.

If I can prove by experiment that can drive more safely while texting than most people with their attention fully focused on the road will I be exempt from these kinds of laws

I work in the insurance industry, and you seriously misread their motivation. Surcharges for violations are not a profit source for the industry, far from it. They exist to try and equalize the risk associated with bad drivers and if you crunch the numbers on premiums vs. claims you'll find that they barely manage to break even on some of these drivers even with the surcharges.
That's not the problem.
They might have to fire an awful lot of people if we replace the idiots behind the wheel with machines.
I dunno, but I'm guessing none of these politicians have ever heard of the Streisand Effect.
Intellectual property is a useful social construct.
Sure. The problem is that these people think that draconian legislation is the answer to a changing marketplace that made their business model obsolete.
Imagine if the buggy-whip manufacturers had had enough money to bribe the government to pass laws preventing manufacture of automobiles...
I'll buy drugs, but I won't buy video games or software. What does that say about me?
You haven't figured out how to get free drugs using the Internet?
Why are European politicians involved in "negotiations" at all?
They get travel expenses and fine food plus hook^Wentertainment...?
I prefer "HHC" - Humongous Hardon Collider.
