The dangers of single line regular expressions
`$` does mean end of input in Java, unless you explicitly ask for multiline mode. In the latter case it means `(?=$|\n)` if also in Unix-lines mode, and the horrible `(?=$|(?I wrote a compiler from Java regex to JavaScript RegExp, in which you'll find that particular compilation scheme [1].

Rust on Espressif chips – 2023 Roadmap
> Scala choices were directly dictated by JVM
Initially, yes. But Scala has evolved beyond the JVM, with Scala.js [1] being rock-solid, and Scala Native [2] under development. Neither are truly hampered by the initial JVM roots of Scala.
> Scala gives you a better horse
Weird analogy ;)

Contrary to popular belief, Scala is actually a quite small and simple language
What does that have to do with language size? It also compiles to js https://www.scala-js.org/ and native https://scala-native.org/en/stable/

Dropping Scala 2.11 support in Scala.js and Scala Native
The compiler crash in question affects another feature that we would like to merge for the benefit of all users, namely https://github.com/scala-js/scala-js/pull/4735. Keeping 2.11 means that testing and shipping that feature is much more difficult, even for 2.12+ users only. It's not just "to fix a compiler crash".

Windows decide whether your computer has limited or full Internet access
TS is more in the "mixed feelings" department, imho.
I would take Scala.js anytime instead. (If I would need to do front-end ever again).

JavaScript is not single-threaded
You forgot to mention (Web)Workers. This is explicit creation, management, and communication with additional threads within JavaScript. What's more, they've been around in JavaScript longer than the V8 engine has even existed!

Speedometer 3.0: A Shared Browser Benchmark for Web Application Responsiveness
> Is it though?
In my experience it's the buggiest browser out of the big three, and is often missing basic features like e.g.:
https://caniuse.com/?search=opus
Supported in Firefox for *12 years* now, in Chrome for 10, still no support in Safari.
They only "support" Opus audio in their special snowflake '.caf' container, which is super buggy and the last time I checked no open source program could even generate Opus '.caf' files that could be played by Safari on all Apple platforms. I ended up writing a custom converter which takes a standard '.opus' file and remuxes it on-the-fly (I only store '.opus' files on my server) into Safari-compatible '.caf' files, taking special care to massage it so that it avoids all of their demuxer/decoder bugs. You shouldn't have to do this to have cross-browser high quality audio!

Streaming HTML out of order without JavaScript
Well I'll be! In my mind I had this clear picture of Firefox implementing it.
It correct, it was only Chrome: https://caniuse.com/?search=html%20import

IPissed: Apple is after web capabilities to protect close to 100B App Store Tax
https://caniuse.com/?search=web%20bluetooth
which might be great because you have the choice...
and you can use open source chromium or brave (like the jvm to run cross platform java) to run web apps seemlessly that need web bluetooth or such but use safari or firefox for personal use if you find them more secure
I mean using chromium engine as the running environment where chromium only ever runs special trusted web domains and never goes to other "malicious" web domains that may fuck up iOS as Apple claims would be still a secure choice
like you will not download spyware from Apple Store because you are an adult not because Apple can protect you there
