In Chrome Canary 122 you can now enable Observables. chrome://flags/#observable-api

wow observables don't work properly with preventDefault
20:15
<snek>
kinda nuts that this moved forward lol
20:16
<bakkot>
it is very very early, open an issue
20:16
<snek>
i'm sure i don't have anything new to add
20:16
<bakkot>
it's just like two people working on it I think
20:17
<bakkot>
it has had basically no feedback
20:18
<bakkot>
https://github.com/WICG/observable/issues/65#issuecomment-1730253485 implies that at least one of the people involved thinks preventDefault is supposed to work https://github.com/WICG/observable/issues/65#issuecomment-1730253485

<bakkot>
so they may not even know that it doesn't work in chrome's implementation
20:20
<snek>
they sometimes work and sometimes don't
20:20
<snek>
depending on which observable apis you call
20:20
<snek>
and how they interleave with the event loop
20:21
<bakkot>
that seems almost certainly unintentional
20:21
<snek>
its documented in the readme though
20:21
<bakkot>
well
20:21
<bakkot>
complain about it they might change it
