V8 adds support for top-level await
All this async code without decent locking primitives is leading to a rabbit hole of race conditions...It doesn't matter that it's all single threaded if all your function calls may or may not block and run a bunch of other code in the meantime, mutating all kinds of state.I feel like JavaScript developers of the 2020's are going to relearn the same things the C programmers of the 1990's learn, just a few levels of abstraction higher.
