      Weirdly, the value returned by `143 ** 143` - i.e. the new, experimental exponentiation operator - is closer to the precise result than that returned from ancient stalwart `Math.pow`pic.twitter.com/YuWf3TJC6N

      OK so I think what's happening is that when V8 interprets an exponentiation expression dynamically (e.g. `x ** x`) it drops through to `Math.pow`, but when it sees a constant exponentiation expression (e.g. `99 ** 99`) it computes the result inline using a different routine?pic.twitter.com/akoTkZi4Ag

      The inline routine has the advantage of returning the correct answer, whereas `Math.pow` evidently has some kind of bug

      Furthermore, the inline routine seems to be in use for integers only, so it's not possible to simply retire `Math.pow`'s current (faulty) implementation and use the inline exponentiation dealie insteadpic.twitter.com/HCQuj6Ex5B

      I imagine the separate integer exponentiation routine was hand-written for performance gains over calling `Math.pow` in certain scenarios

      For future reference I'm seeing this in 64-bit Chrome 72.0.3626.96 on Windows, and in Node.js 10.15.1 which uses V8 6.8.275.32-node.12

      Simpler repro: const x = 99; console.log(x ** x - 99 ** 99); It’s fixed in @v8js master. See https://bugs.chromium.org/p/v8/issues/detail?id=5848 ….
