The funniest thing is Google Maps developers said the site now looks better. More evidence to the point that their sites coders are shit. I can run Youtube 1080 streams over Hooktube better than I can on Youtube. I don't know who wrote that shit, but they should be fired.
The mobile player works perfectly fine, but the full media player is insanely slow, even when it is playing 144p video.
The newer update that came out a few years back is horribly optimized. I know this as a fact because I used to be able to use Google Maps on an old netbook. Wrapping functions in deeply-nested enclosures. Want to know what's the worst thing to do in JavaScript?

If you wanted to learn today, there are plenty of easy-to-read examples in C, C++, or Objective C. We remember puzzling out the BDOS and BIOS interfaces in the 1980s and it required reading assembly language. The CPU is a little better at nearly 1500 lines of code. If you ever built a 64K memory board for a computer of this era, it is mildly unsettling to see the whole thing reduced to about 50 lines of code. Once you have that, it is relatively easy to boot CP/M on the virtual Z80 computer. There’s also a directory with the CP/M BDOS interface. There are sections for the BIOS, the processor, and RAM memory. The project is logically laid out if you’d like to read the code or attempt changes.
There are plenty of Z80 emulators that can run CP/M, but what we found most interesting about this one is that it is written in Objective C, a language with a deep history in the Mac and NeXT worlds. Of course you might be happier running Zork or Turbo Pascal, and you can do that, too. In case you wanted to run WordStar on your Mac, offers CP/M for OS/X, and it looks like it would be a lot of fun.
