Thanks. For context, as somewhat of an outsider, I knew about Crockford 'JS: The Good Parts' and knew the community cared about working within the limits of a sane "subset" of JS. A few years later, I hear Typescript is everywhere and JS folks love it. I didn't pay attention to what it really claims to be, but made a connection with the Crockford book, and started mentioning in discussion with acquaintances that it's a subset of JS (it must be because that's what the community wanted). Lo and behold, one of them heard TS is a "superset", not a subset, and dissed me as a knowledgeable tech person, despite himself knowing so little that barely weeks ago he didn't know the difference between Java and Javascript. Sorry, I'm done with this mess.
