Node.js does not serve the needs of what I'm doing in d8.
I'm talking about d8 specifically.
I'm developing V8 and pointing out an omission that can be addressed by
providing an option to remove UTF-8 checks for readline() or by adjusting
read("path", "binary") to not check for file length, thus providingthe
capability to read from STDIN to an ArrayBuffer.
As to this mailing list, I've read all kinds of proposals here, from
Float16Array to others that wind up in TC-39.
I don't understand the resistance to developer feedback from the field.
Nothing horrible can happen by providing a means to read STDIN in d8.
I'm not an adversary here. I'm diving in the JavaScript and sharing my
feedback.
Anyway, thanks. Have a great day.
