<cwebber>dckc: I actually don't think it's important or correct that weak key hashtables not be iterable
<cwebber>The primary argument for it is that it might open up some kinds of timing attacks
<cwebber>From analyzing when the GC runs
<cwebber>But the same potential attack can be executed with weak refs as far as we can tell
<cwebber>And js has those
<cwebber>There's also the issue of iterating when keys may disappear mid iteration and that's indeed a concern
<cwebber>Ephemerons do indeed help there
<pisemsky>Spritely's website displays some code examples invisible when light theme is active, i.e. uses the same color for font and background.
<pisemsky>Screenshot from librewolf: https://postimg.cc/R6mS266m
<pisemsky>Same in chromium and also confirmed by another person with firefox.
<pisemsky>Also footer is quite unreadable.
<dthompson>thanks pisemsky
<dthompson>bugs in the light theme. will fix.
