Safari does not support BigInt yet it seems.

[oehtXRwMkIs]

Safari seems to be consistently behind these days, not sure why.

[LeoPanthera]

Apple seems to be the only browser developer that makes user-centric changes first, not developer-centric.

I'm OK with that.

[recursive]

It seems user-centric to you know... make the browser work for what users what to use it for. Like generating digits of pi.

[nacs]

Yes I'm sure there's a lot of consumers that want to calculate large amounts of digits of Pi in their browser..

[recursive]

I didn't say that. You're moving goalposts anyway. Calculating pi isn't the only use for big ints. The more practical application is maybe crypto or something.

But some users want to do it.

[hnaccy]

Given their $$$ seems like they could do both.

I don't think BigInt is some adtech anti-feature.

[nicoburns]

Safari also does releases less often than Chrome/Firefox. They are behind, but not by that much.

[wp381640]

Given the recent influx of iOS exploits that have centered around WebKit they should probably adjust that priority

[Thorrez]

Will adding developer-centric features help reduce vulnerabilities? Generally adding any feature would increase vulnerabilities because of the increased surface area.

They are afraid the browser is going to kill their cash cow.

Meh Safari is the new IE...
