HN has a high proportion of experienced programmers coming from typed languages. If you are a C# dev who has to write JS, I'm sure typescript is a breath of fresh air, but from where I stand it's awful. The whole point of TS is to reduce the friction in writing JS for those people.
However, from where I stand, Typescript sucks. Sucks sucks sucks. It takes everything I love about JS programming and turns it into suck.
