You can go talk to TC39 delegates in #tc39 on freenode right now (it will be kind of quiet for the next few days though since there is an in-person plenary and people are not looking at IRC as much). We also use https://es.discou

I love seeing what people are doing in the space of REPL interactivity. I've been working on a similar project, but for Node.js[1]. One of the things I've found the most helpful so far is color highlighting the input , in additio

It is designed to be able to skip the "tier up JIT" stage that JS code has to go through, where JS code is profiled at runtime to decide what should be optimized, what the types are, etc. `1 + 1` in JS and `(i32.add (i32.const 1)

This `iw` module is a pretty cool toy, but it has to compile wasm text format to wasm bytecode at runtime, every time. An actual `Hello World` is not too much effort to be honest (30 loc) https://gist.github.com/devsnek&#x2F

moddablexs and quickjs are probably better at this point, with current spec compatibility and whatnot. still a lot of respect for duktape though, it is not that bad to embed.

lua has s:gsub, which is basically the same thing... or are you saying js should've popped into existence with thousands of stdlib functions?

It has to do with certain behaviours of RegExp objects, such as the `lastIndex` property, as well as consistency with `matchAll`. There was a lot of discussion[1] about what should happen with a regex that doesn't have /g, and i

it was not caused by a failure of the js vm though, it was caused (from what i can tell) by a failure in c++ tracing code.

node dev here - none of the prs here deal with segfaults from js code, because that doesn't really happen (at least, I've never seen it happen). You might have some more success searching V8's bug tracker.
