      If that's V8's position it was not represented yesterday at TC39 meeting. I think we're just tweeting fools :-/

      I'm sorry for the confusion. I cannot speak for the V8 wrt. @TC39, only @littledan can do that. 1/

      So by "We" I meant a couple of people on the V8 team, not necessarily representative for the whole team though. 2/

      We weren't aware that Int64/Uint64 would be a hot topic, otherwise we'd have prepared an official position for. 3/

      Now that we are aware, we'll discuss the topic (incl. considering Node.js concerns/requests) for next @TC39. 4/4

      just agreed: try BigInt (name & suffix TBD, but L suffix is out) as alternative to Int64, @littledan among champions.

      Maybe consider making the primitive be fixed-modulus finite commutative rings ℤ/nℤ instead.

      Replying to @BRIAN_____ @BrendanEich and

      Likely that more things need fixed-length modular math; hard to build on top of var-length bigints.

      this feels like Int64 proposal. Z/nZ is often modulo specific

      Mersenne primes require one handling, other numbers may need Montgomery or Barrett

      *If* you're willing to write modulus-specific reductions, you can sometimes do it faster.

          exactly! And we are willing to do it in many cases.

          Every implementation would (optionally) special-case Curve25519. Good enough.

          could you please elaborate on this? I’m not sure what you mean by this

          When the modulus is Curve25519's, it would use special reduction, if it really cares.

          I see. However with default BigInt implementation doing this may be troublesome
