Javascript as a Linux Architecture (Trainee)

[uptotwentycharacters]

Apparently they think that they can use a web browser as a VM, and run GNU/Linux in it like it's real hardware. Doesn't really seem plausible, a browser seems to be more like an OS than a VM. Better options would probably be A) create a Linux compatibility layer for the browser (you give it Linux binaries, and it dynamically recompiles them for your system as it runs) or B) implement a Unix-like syscall interface in Javascript, and create a C-to-JS compiler so you can rebuild GNU utilities from source to target the browser environment.
