There are a few things already here or “coming soon” that will 100% let you leapfrog JS. WASM still has no concept of garbage collection which means that by default it’s limited to a smallish number of languages that are viable. That’s chan

I didn’t mention Facebook once and I sure as hell didn’t ask anyone to “trust Zuck”. I asked why they were uncritically quoting the position of one of the most high profile partisan groups who have an extensive history of bad faith claims
