Impressive, but we should stop trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. If there’s one thing the world doesn’t need is JavaScript in more places.

No but I can close the air duct just above my soft palate (not really sure what that part is called), so effectively I can’t breathe through my nose but if I were to go underwater water would still get in, if that makes any sense. I’m not sure if this is common. I know that that part is supposed to close automatically while swallowing to prevent food from going up in the nasal cavity, but idk how common it is to be able to control it separately. It’s handy to avoid smells without using my hands though :)
Waiting for the Rust haters to get unjustifiedly mad again…
What is the point in censoring “Fucking” if it can be read just as easily? Why even censor it at all? Also I don’t get it, depicting a Molotov cocktail and inciting violence is fine but the word “fucking” is too naughty not to censor? Pick a side.
JavaScript doesn’t have a few bad decisions baked into it, it’s an absolute minefield. It was made for one thing and one thing only: making simple scripts for web pages. Anything beyond that and it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain. I honesty have no idea why devs are so hellbent on using it everywhere. Putting such an unreliable dynamic language, with absolutely no safety guards when it comes to type checking and serialization, on bare metal hardware is not something I’d ever consider in good conscience. Maybe it could be used for some IoT devices, but that’s it, definitely not for something that interfaces with machinery or anything more than something like a display. TinyGo sounds like an infinitely better pick if someone wants to use a garbage collected language on an embedded device.
