For the benefit of any of Today’s 10,000 I just want to point out that this is a reference to a quote from a movie.
The same movie stars Danny Trejo as Machete.
This movie is Spy Kids 2.
How? You’d need to compile it down to machine code somehow, for the processor to have any clue how to run it. And you’d need some custom library with custom compile instructions, to be able to control memory allocations, memory addresses etc…
I did a quick search and found two operating systems written in JS, both of which cop out when it comes to the kernel. Did you maybe mix it up with those?
Don’t tempt fate. There are already two kernels written in javascript
Why would God allow this to happen?
To punish us for the sin that is inventing JavaScript.
Why do you think God stays in heaven, in fear of what He created?

There’s almost always at least a little ASM sprinkled into any kernel, so that’s not a big deal.
OTOH, there is the factor of “you know how Chrome takes up 2GB per tab? What if that was a whole OS?”
Maybe I did, I haven’t looked any of them carefully
