@mhdawson is this event 4hrs long (guessing based on agenda)? If so, I think the time (10-12 eastern) is incorrect and perhaps should be 10-2 eastern?

[mhdawson]

@joesepi thanks for catching that. Fixing.

Hey I'm interested in attending this as I've made a lot of contributions to the NodeJS types on DT and am familiar with a lot of it's current issues/gotchas/constraints that we've had to overcome over the last ~3 years.

I will do my best to show up :)

Single Executable Applications - 90 mins

Are there prior issues/PR one should read to get initial context? We distribute Yarn as a single binary (via bundling), but the parsing/startup cost is becoming a problem and we'd be interested to know if you have something in mind that could address that (related issue I opened at the beginning of the year: nodejs/node#36812).

[mhdawson]

@arcanis we did not get into any depth in terms of solutions for single binary, the only solution that was mentioned as one of the existing options we should look at is the one the mongodb used.

Added zoom link as I see I missed that : https://zoom.us/j/99950131676

@addaleax FYI, if you have time/interest I think you would add a lot to the discussion on Single Executable Applications

@guybedford Would be great to have your feedback on the Single Executable Applications discussion as well 🙂
