Bun, JavaScript, and TCO
To use this in Bun, you’d have to start Bun with the environment variable “BUN_JSC_useDollarVM=1” and then $vm.createBuiltin(mySourceCodeString)
When using this intrinsic, if any of the arguments are incorrect or it cannot otherwise enable it, the entire process will probably crash. In debug builds of JSC it will have a nicer assertion failure but that is not enabled in release builds
Example code: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/blob/17351231b4dedb62d81721...
also happy to answer any questions about Bun

Show HN: Rem: Remember Everything (open source)
Ah, good, let me introduce you to the wonderful world of the Chrome Devtools Protocol! (fka Chrome Remote Debugging Protocol)
I love this API for almost everything browser related. I built my RBI product atop this (BrowserBox: https://dosyago.com), and I think it's a drastically underrated API.
Also, it works out of the box in Edge, Brave, Chromium, and many parts of CRDP are supported by Firefox and Safari^1

Making Web Component properties behave closer to the platform
You can see how Mozilla tests the compliance of their built-in elements in the Gecko repository (the ok and is assertions are defined in their SimpleTest testing framework). And here's the Web Platform Tests' reflection harness, with data for each built-in element in sibling files, that almost every browser pass.

Pinch Zoom with Mouse Wheel is too Slow = How to Adjust Zoom Increments?
aWheelInput.mDeltaY looks like the increment setting used for this https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev/commit/9033e3e1200acfd4b8f8ae024c215b99d12b97bdTried "mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_y" and "mousewheel.with_control.delta_multiplier_y" without much luck.It may have something to do with https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1138704 although this case is about pinch zoom emulation.
