How to learn Deno as an alternative to Node.js
Deno's website has installation instructions for various operating systems, and its complete source code is available in its GitHub repo. I run macOS, so I can install Deno with HomeBrew:

Whats your general purpose scripting language of choice?
I've been watching Deno with high hopes but haven't used it in anger yet

Deno.js in Production. Key Takeaways.
Much of Node.js is written in C, yet it's still called Node.js.
Deno has some JavaScript/TypeScript in it. On GitHub https://github.com/denoland/deno is 22.8% JavaScript and 13.2% TypeScript, and https://github.com/denoland/deno_std is 68.2% JavaScript and 31.6% TypeScript.
So to me it's misleading about the name, but not about what Deno is written in.

Help. Started web dev last year and don’t know if choice i made will affect me
Node (javascript) is fine and its successor, Deno (written in Rust by the author of Node) is very promising.

Show HN: Invertornot.com – API to enhance your images in dark-mode
Semi-related - I saw this trick on https://v8.dev a while back, but `filter: hue-rotate(180deg) invert();` can be a neat CSS trick to 'dark mode' some kinds of graphics. The `hue-rotate` help a bit to keep 'blues blue' etc.
It's far from perfect, but it's a neat trick to be aware of.

Top 8 Recent V8 Updates
V8 is a high-performance JavaScript engine developed by Google. Its purpose is to convert JavaScript code into machine code for execution by the underlying hardware. Primarily developed by the V8 team at Google, the engine focuses on speed and efficiency. In particular, it relies on just-in-time compilation and uses inline caching for high performance.

C++ Specification vs Implementation
Exactly the same as JavaScript engines. Be it Mozilla's SpiderMoneky, Google's V8, Apple's Webkit, or Microsoft's Chakra. No matter how specific we draft a specification there is always room for interpretation. Every team has a different take on what part of a spec is describing. Oftentimes it's just a matter of varying pros and cons of different approaches on the road to matching spec; various teams just kind of have to pick a direction and run with it. Other times a spec is not only too vague, but clearly short-sighted to boot.

Abstract Syntax Trees and Practical Applications in JavaScript
Remember that we earlier established that every source gets parsed into an AST at some point before it gets compiled or interpreted. For example, platforms like Nodejs and chromium-based browsers use Gooogle's V8 engine behind the scenes to run JavaScript and of course, some AST parsing is always involved before the interpreter kicks in. I looked V8's source and I discovered it uses its own internal parser to achieve this.

Bun vs Node.js: Everything you need to know
While Node.js uses Google's V8 engine that power's Chrome browser, Bun uses JavaScriptCore (JSC), which is an open source JavaScript engine developed by Apple for Safari.

The Ascent of Node.js: How a runtime changed the Web
While the idea of server-side JavaScript was not novel, what powered Node.js was! The V8 engine, birthed by Google for Chrome, was now driving Node.js, bringing unparalleled speed and performance to JavaScript execution.

Introduction to memory management in Node.js applications
Node runs on the V8 JavaScript engine, which handles memory allocation. The entirety of memory used for a running Node application is held in what is known as a Resident Set. This includes:
