Combatting Alert Fatigue by Prioritizing Malicious Intent
In 2023, data breaches surged 78% from zero-day and supply chain attacks, but developers are still buried under alerts that are unable to prevent these threats.
babel-plugin-transform-bigint
Advanced tools
A plugin for babel to transform `x * y` into something like `JSBI.multiply(x, y)` to support bigints.
Update: Now it can convert a code using BigInt into a code using JSBI (https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/jsbi). It will try to detect when an operator is used for bigints, not numbers. This will not work in many cases, so please use JSBI directly only if you know, that the code works only with bigints.
Input using native BigInt
s:
const a = BigInt(Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER);
const b = 2n;
a + b;
a - b;
a * b;
a / b;
a % b;
a ** b;
a << b;
a >> b;
a & b;
a | b;
a ^ b;
-a;
~a;
a === b;
a < b;
a <= b;
a > b;
a >= b;
a.toString();
Number(a);
Compiled output using JSBI
:
const a = JSBI.BigInt(Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER);
const b = JSBI.BigInt(2);
JSBI.add(a, b);
JSBI.subtract(a, b);
JSBI.multiply(a, b);
JSBI.divide(a, b);
JSBI.remainder(a, b);
JSBI.exponentiate(a, b);
JSBI.leftShift(a, b);
JSBI.signedRightShift(a, b);
JSBI.bitwiseAnd(a, b);
JSBI.bitwiseOr(a, b);
JSBI.bitwiseXor(a, b);
JSBI.unaryMinus(a);
JSBI.bitwiseNot(a);
JSBI.equal(a, b);
JSBI.lessThan(a, b);
JSBI.lessThanOrEqual(a, b);
JSBI.greaterThan(a, b);
JSBI.greaterThanOrEqual(a, b);
a.toString();
JSBI.toNumber(a);
¡ It is buggy !

xprev = x;
x = (x + S / x) / 2n;
