it checks if union exists though, throw it out 🗑

It's fun to ask ChatGPT: "What language feature from another language would you add to Javascript?" Fascinating how it can talk about anything.

https://github.com/tc39/proposal-arraybuffer-transfer looks great, no notes!

rbuckton: parseH1 in ecmarkup seems to not be able to parse rest variables (which show up in the spec). I tried finding if they were handled somewhere else in ecmarkup, but couldn't seem to find it anywhere. Could you point me to where that's handled? https://runkit.com/tolmasky/parsing-in-ecmarkup-h1s

<bakkot>
tolmasky: it might well just not handle it; ecmarkup is generally pretty permissive with stuff it doesn't recognize, outside of a few contexts
16:48
<bakkot>
also I'm the current ecmarkup maintainer if you have questions about it

I was looking at the ArrayBuffer.transfer proposal, and it feels odd to have my only contribution to a JS engine at all so far listed as prior art for get detached
18:03
<Andreu Botella>
but yeah, I worked on that because it was needed for Deno to be able to implement web APIs like streams and structuredClone
18:04
<Andreu Botella>
and it was particularly necessary looking forwards to the resizable proposal, since at this point web APIs wouldn't be the only ones detaching buffers

bakkot ah my mistake! apologies for that. Is there some other part of the process I should look into that takes it and turns it in ( ... <var>values</var> ), because it seems to somehow go from "( ...values )" to "<var>values</var>" at some point

I'm pretty sure the dots are just ignored, e.g.

$ printf '\n<emu-clause id="POC">\n<h1>POC ( ..._a_, ..._b_, ???_c_, !@#$%%^&-+=_d_ )</h1>\n</emu-clause>' | npx ecmarkup /dev/stdin /dev/stdout 2>/dev/null | sed -n 's/.*<emu-clause/<emu-clause/; /id="POC"/,$p'
<emu-clause id="POC">
<h1><span class="secnum">1</span> POC ( ...<var>a</var>, ...<var>b</var>, ???<var>c</var>, !@#$%^&amp;-+=<var>d</var> )</h1>
</emu-clause></div></body>
