When you're debugging, the Chrome Dev Tools will assign a name to that global based on the contents of the string. So, if your string constant is:
"Hello! This is a string…a long one!"
…then a `global.get` of that will show:

The Stage 4 "JS string builtins" feature allows you to import and reference JavaScript string constants.
It's supported in V8/Node via the `--experimental-wasm-imported-strings` flag
You need to import a global of type `externref`, where the import *name* is the string itself:

Itanium is kinda a cute ISA, it's a shame it needed a sentient compiler in order to produce any performant code at all :v
But yeah, VLIW ISAs are pretty neat!

i mean honestly making JIT assembly recompilation with a bonkers VLIW architecture 'boring' is an engineering accomplishment in of itself but im talking about like.. more 'native' stuff i guess?

PowerPC was an utterly brilliant ISA at the time - it's kinda sad from a nerdy perspective that modern consoles are just x86 boxes with super-duper custom software - there was a time in the 2000s where it felt like wacky CPU ideas were starting to take off (SPEs, VLIW processors like Itanium, etc.)

The Transmeta Crusoe was a 700MHz VLIW processor that “simulated” a ~500MHz x86 Intel chip.
Their virtual machine, known as Code Morphing Software, was flexible enough to emulate other ISAs as well.
Early demos even showed off the Crusoe running Java bytecode!

Yeah this is literally something Google just forced upon every single workspace account with little warning. This is just Google shoving AI into their products versus surveillance, Elon did not do this, it happened already very recently

Trump's tariffs could derail online shopping in the U.S.
Large tariffs would likely push prices upward—and could tank e-commerce.
