This snippet of code is syntactically valid in both PHP and Java, and produces the same output in both.
/*<?php
//*/public class PhpJava { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.printf("/*%s",
//\u000A\u002F\u002A
class PhpJava {
static function main() {
echo(//\u000A\u002A\u002F
"Hello World!");
}}
//\u000A\u002F\u002A
PhpJava::main();

Python on Pebble. Yes. It works, with a bit of space to write a decent app and some heap memory to spare. AJAX works, as shown in code.

Yup, you can run Python on your Pebble too! Go thank the good folks who
made Transcrypt, a dead-simple way to take your Python code and translate
it to *very* lean Javascript. In our case, instead of browser, we run it
on Pebble using their equally dead-simple Online IDE and Pebble.js library.
Here's a working example, it runs on a real Pebble Classic.

I just did something that depending on your viewpoint on coding, is either an insult to God and humanity, or absolutely brilliant.
#
# I inherited a large code base, where hundreds of code paths end up
# calling "common_function_called_in_gazillion_places".
#
# And the need arose for this function to access the HTTP request's
# headers...
#
# What to do? Refactor all the places leading up to here? In a dynamically
# typed language, with no compiler to tell us the places to refactor?

More console.log sillyness
var _log = console.log;
window.console.log = function(log){
_log.call(console, log.reverse ? log.reverse() : typeof log === 'string' ? log.split('').reverse().join('') : typeof log === 'number' ? log.toString().split('').reverse().join('') : typeof log === 'boolean' ? !log : log);
