Fair enough. Idk who downvoted me, but based on your reasonable response, doesn't seem like it was you. Ultimately, TS enforces those implicit comments you mentioned and adds some explicitness to the code. Whatever works for you and ge

Of course your opinions are your opinions. However, if the JS build system was actually sane, TS would be the default choice. It's a superset of JS, so saying no typescript necessary is like saying a horse gets me from a to b, no need

I feel exactly the same. Not going down this route around the same time I probably would've gone Windows 7 -> Windows 10 -> Windows 11 and had to deal with all that brings with it. Instead going fully Linux had its pain points, b

Personally, the biggest appeal of Arch is the great wiki, a large number of up to date packages without snap/ppa whatever else Ubuntu makes you do, and the AUR for anything else that isn't available in the regular package repos. I

There doesn't seem to be a HN post that got traction. But the original (archived) has comments, which is what scott-smith_us may be referring to https://web.archive.org/web/20140529003713/https://typ

Maybe because then you can just inline a pyproject text without any extra effort and the existing tooling for pyproject parsing can work in both cases?

Additionally, I can't tell what a multi-format test-case reducer is...README isn't helpful. I could read the source code, but not sure if that would be a good use of my time. I agree, this post should not be getting votes.

Lack of documentation frustrated me too. I dont come from a pure FP or Haskell background, so all the type signatures and FP terms don't help at all. I only used like 2 or 3 categories of things from it since those were thing that i co

I kind of worked in a place similar to this. But I think having someone who understands engineering as opposed to just functional programming is important. The codebase I worked on was quite functional, written in TypeScript with libraries

Really interesting. I've been toying with the idea of writing something similar, but a bit more broader in scope about backend/frontend development. Last commit on the github repo was 9 months ago. Is this still being working on?
