I don't care what svelte does, but I've maintained projects with jsdoc types and projects using ts directly and IMO using jsdoc tends to be more of a hassle to maintain, had worse ide guidance and in general felt just more cumbers

I'm not at all concerned with AI. On the short to mid term it's making my life easier by relieving me of the boring parts of my job. It's pretty good at writing unit tests for example. But I don't see the current generat

Can only speak for java. But I'm way more productive with typescript. Typescript has 2 things going for it: - type system is way more flexible. You can create, merge, pick keys and manipulate types in all kinds of ways. You have better

There's a lot of adjacent software industry. E.g. I work for a company that makes management software for offshore wind farms. The channels to find jobs in this field are the regular ones like LinkedIn.

I agree it's not easier, but I thought the main argument was better composability. And I think that it achieves that goal quite well.

I've been involved in some big public sector projects and it indeed went like this, but I'd say most of the blame was on the government. The tender requirements were written by a general tender-writing team of the government. We o

That's not how I recall it. In my experience, the general opinion here was that Musk indeed wanted to get out of the deal but that he was legally going to have to go with it. Which is what has happened.
