Visualizing process evolution
summary
Claims that you can read runtime behavior visually and actually see surprising implementation differences: a small 8‑bit VM and an image-mapped memory renderer demonstrate self‑modifying programs, a heat‑map of hot code, and a clear hashing collision pattern when comparing Immutable.js vs Mori. The demo uses instrumentation (fondue/Theseus) to trace real JS frameworks (Agility) and shows live rebuilding and occasional demo fragility; the takeaway is a working visualization prototype and a push to get this into devtools.
