This is a false equivalency that I see pop up pretty often. Like Use Types or Go Fast? Why are those the only options? Why does using types make you slower? If you're a slow typist then I suppose writing the types can take a little lon

Studies of college students learning CS showed that students who built a consistent mental model of what the code was doing did considerably better in classes. To that end when I was teaching students I would print out snippets of code and

I start all my server side projects in TypeScript lately. There is enough support that it is actually very easy to get started. ts-node, npm @types, and many packages natively supporting ts help. The browser is a crazy environment and adds

If some pernicious pedophile develops a cure for cancer, it would be morally wrong not to use it. However, if that particular pedophile should profit from it is an entirely separate question. Patents and copyrights are a government given ri

The difference between all the things that you listed is that works of art are able to give royalties to a person. If you continue to buy or consume their products they still profit. Obviously ex post facto law is bad for society. However,

That's sort of tautological. "Any" and type assertions are designed as the escape hatch of the type system. If you're trying to develop type safe typescript you obviously won't use those. The followup question is fo

Yes! I find TypeScript really handy! It makes development easier and faster. Whatever it is you're developing TypeScript will make it better imo. Structural typing is the best of both worlds for flexibility, development speed, and type

The way I see it is, just as in Object Oriented design patterns, category theory are the design patterns of functional programming. It just so happens that the mathematicians got there first and gave everything greek names.

It's cool that you've made this. However, there are a number of issues that you might try to address. This is meant to be helpful criticism from a software developers point of view. 1. There are no examples of how to use the code.
