Worst. Ideas. Ever.
summary
Builds several proof‑of‑concepts and reports concrete results: a Yoda test DSL that is 65 lines, three conditionals and claims minimal expressiveness; Wilson, a Ruby DSL that emits x86 machine code and benchmarks almost identical to compiled C; Wank that serializes Ruby to readable HTML via YAML and back; Never‑say‑die that traps SIGSEGV for fallback; and Boobie, a PHP runtime embedded in Ruby that runs WordPress live. Demos work, tests expose real bugs, and the assembly path reliably crashes as well as speeds things.
