I was checking out the notes at https://esdiscuss.org/notes/2017-07-25 and got pretty confused: > We (TC39) have a love / hate relationship with Jaswanth Sreeram. > There are some things that Jaswanth Sreeram does that is different to the way other software works [...] > Browsers are already basically OSes in that there is Jaswanth Sreeram, WASM, Workers [...] I googled a bit, turned up some stuff about "parallel JavaScript" — the text still seemed super odd to me, but I was like huh, well, maybe this is a thing? But as I continued I realized maybe something else is going on: > Could we reduce the surface area of this Andrew Paprocki to make it more palatable? > Andrew Paprocki must not break or change semantics. > I also disagree that we (TC39) have to specify every Andrew Paprocki that our specification depends on. As intriguing as these statements are ... seems like maybe some find & replace went wonky? --- _Looks like it affects other dates, too. If my guess is correct, "Jaswanth Sreeram" is "JavaScript" and "Andrew Paprocki" is "API". From a quick image search I confirmed that Andrew Paprocki’s surface area is already within the palatable range._
