TC39 Delegates on 2022-09-12

07:48	<bakkot>	I don’t see mentions of this option in the previous Set methods presentations. Static methods might be able to sidestep the issues with the “`this` Set uses internal slots and argument Sets use a symbol-based public API” approach. The only discussion I can find about the static-methods option is in https://github.com/tc39/proposal-set-methods/issues/1, and I don’t really see any compelling reasoning against static methods given in there. it does not sidestep the issue - the fundamental problem is "how do you get the data from a Set which you take as an argument", and taking two Sets as arguments instead of one doesn't help
07:51	<bakkot>	ignoring that and considering only questions of design, instance methods seem much more natural to me? that's how it works in Java/rust/etc also
14:57	<ryzokuken>	hi delegates! the draft schedule has been linked from the reflector.
17:08	<TabAtkins>	rbuckton: Yo, in your Resource Management slides, it appears that slide 2 has several smaller slides embedded into it? These are unreadably small, fyi. It looks like they're actually meaningful to explaining the proposal motivations, tho, so you might want to format this differently.
17:12	<rbuckton>	You can click into them for the full slide (in PowerPoint, at least)
17:18	<TabAtkins>	Can't do that on the web, and not willing to install a new office suite just to read slides.
17:20	<TabAtkins>	(And I'd hazard that a pretty small fraction of delegates are going to do so either, even if they have Powerpoint, since it involves downloading the file and loading them up in a new program.) So optimizing for web display seems prudent, imo.
17:32	<rbuckton>	The slides are also present at the end of the deck as "Backup Slides", which seem to be visible in the web viewer.
17:32	<TabAtkins>	Ah, I suspected that might be the case, since the web viewer stops 6 slides from the end and won't show me those final ones. ^_^
17:34	<TabAtkins>	(iow, I can get to slide 32 of 38 in the web viewer, but the Next button doesn't take me past that point)
17:35	<rbuckton>	I'm not in a position to make any changes to the deck at the moment, so hopefully that workaround suffices.
17:36	<TabAtkins>	It doesn't, as I said. But you have a few days before the presentation anyway, so I hope it'll be fixed by then. (Hopefully by inlining the slides where they are meant to be displayed, as I assume you'll be showing those slides at that point in the presentation anyway.)
