Is there a reason to meet today? I’m not sure why nodejs/node#30491 is on the agenda.

[aduh95]

I’m not sure why nodejs/node#30491 is on the agenda.

Because console.log flakiness inside worker threads is an issue for loaders (and has been a pain for our own tests). If we have time, we could discuss what solutions we could come up with.

[GeoffreyBooth]

I’m not sure I can attend today, but if you’d like to meet please feel free. @aduh95 or @JakobJingleheimer I assume either of you can run the Zoom/YouTube?

[JakobJingleheimer]

I can meet. Do we need to make a decision (that should be recorded) or just pair/brainstorm (which could just be a huddle)?

[GeoffreyBooth]

I’m not sure what decision could need to be made? If you find a solution for the console.log issues then I think just make a PR, and if there are any tradeoffs involved they can be analyzed in the context of landing that PR.

[JakobJingleheimer]

Sounds like we don't need an official meeting then?

Michaël has a clever idea which he pushed earlier today that hopefully will do the trick (theoretically, I can't see why it wouldn't work). So 🤞

That's what I made in nodejs/node#47036, but given the lack of interactions on that PR, it was hoping discussing it in the loaders meeting would be more productive. I'm fine skipping, it sounds like Michaël may have find another solution, so it's not as urgent to find a solution.
