Because one is annual, and the other is just total. The equivalent of GDP for corporations would be annual revenue.

JS has proper async stacktraces as well, or do you mean something else?

Great work!

Strangely, I thought I remember being able to use breakpoints on https://cloudflareworkers.com/ - I thought it handled inspector messages in a nested loop until receiving debugger resume command - since the beginning but I guess I must be mistaken... Maybe that was just an idea we had back then.

> What prevents developing a wrapper or shim that runs any wasm as if it were any other native executable?

That definitely exists and is used on server-side - Wasmtime, Wasmer and others.

Browser ports can't integrate at OS level, they're intentionally separated today, but given that e.g. Node.js has WebUSB support (https://github.com/node-usb/node-usb), I guess you could make a layer that exposes such Wasm drivers as native to the OS. Could be a fun experiment.

Chromebook is probably the perfect target for those kinds of ports. Definitely worth giving a try, hopefully SANE supports it.
