There's an argument to be made that this [0] (generated via [1]) is not something to be celebrated. But that's just me, not necessarily what the parent poster had in mind. [0]: https://i.imgur.com/LhEahvi.png [1

I'm sure some developers would manage such a project without TS. Good for them. I wouldn't maintain it that way because: 1. I don't have the mental capacity to keep every single function's argument/return shape in m

I started using TypeScript back when it was 0.8, before it even had generics. Does that make me a fanboy? I have a project with about 45k SLOC of TypeScript (using Knockout.js for presentation). There is really no way I would maintain that

I'm not the parent poster, and I'm not sure if these are the regex selectors they had in mind, but nonetheless. An example use case: the person writing the HTML ≠ the person writing the selectors. Browser extensions like Stylus, f

This is the good old imperative-vs-declarative debate. jQuery is "(I think) I know what the current state of the UI is, make these changes", React is "I need the UI to be in this state, you figure out how to get it there&quot

When RIAA/MPAA/etc. came with astronomical fines, those same companies suddenly created the capabilities to block things that even smelled like copyrighted material. Whatever your opinion of MAFIAA is, it would seem this sort of d

One more thing that IMO gets overlooked too often: TypeScript can typecheck your JSX markup. Compare that to any string-based templating engine, such as Knockout.js templates or jquery.tmpl, where you have to learn its snowflake DSL, you ge

Was this motivated by something in the release notes, or are you just taking the opportunity to bang the Firefox drum? Should we expect this comment in every Chrome-related thread?

Even if you have worked with that framework before, odds are six months have passed since then and the framework has changed 50% of its best practices. Using a tool like this also avoids stale documentation/tutorials.

Try Shift-Ins instead. It also performs pasting, but fewer people seem to be aware of it. Trivia: Shift-Ins actually predates Ctrl-V :-)

In theory, couldn't Firefox's certificate store blacklist the TLS certificate your website uses, with the same user-confusing result?

And yet something as basic as a preview is missing. Reddit's community-driven browser plugin ([0]) at least adds that, HN's counterpart [1] sorely needs it. --- Come to think of it, is there a definitive guide to HN comment form

Compiled code doesn't have to be unreadable. Languages like C and C++ made it readable with debug symbols. The web stack does the same with source maps. The TypeScript compiler also offers to emit .d.ts files with type information for

"Takes many types" ≠ "cannot be typed". TypeScript supports decorators, union types, and `any`/`unknown` types. Those generic use cases are good examples of flexible types, but I have a hard time seeing how * "

How long does your integration test take to run and report failures? Compared to instant feedback while you're writing the code, that's glacial.

I think the parent is objecting to the fact that annotations spray this "external" information right in the middle of the controller/model. FWIW, decent tools let you put this info in separate configuration files instead of c

Note that we already have examples of a certain resource limit. WebSQL and IndexedDB databases are capped to a maximum size per domain, and different browsers have different caps and different UX for configuring/bypassing them. Granted
