This is just the start of the madness. Mistakes like this are typically from so-called JS/TS developers who ‘think’ they can maintain core browser technology.
We’ll certainly get more of these typical amateur mistakes in the AI age, and will certainly get this from vibe-coders who completely have no idea what they are doing.
This is a different league in engineering and we’re starting to realize that perhaps it is a bad idea to hire devs who have little experience in building production-grade browsers because they are too used to tolerating the clumsiness of the JS/TS ecosystem.
Just to note I'm not making excuses for the issue in the article.
