I recently underwent a very similar experience at MemSQL[1] but for only 30K LOC. The pain points that led us away from Flow to TypeScript seem to be the same as the ones as Quizlet's . Overall, I'm very happy to see more and more

That's awesome! Did you convert from Flow or just plain JS? I think the experience is much different when converting from Flow vs converting from JS. When coming from pure JavaScript, you do indeed become much more confident and flexib

Right but isn't that effectively changing the runtime code (thus making it a trick) in order to fix a type error? I don't know if the performance of `a.concat(b)` is the same as `[].concat(a, b)`.

Author here. I understand this example may be a little controversial. However, from my point of view, if I annotate my function as returning an `Array<MemsqlNode>` and `leaves.concat(aggregators)` can be cast to `Array<MemsqlNode&g

If you make 100K euros per year in Portugal you will pay more than 50% in taxes.

As a Portuguese person living in Portugal, this article is quite misleading. Portugal is one of the countries with highest income and social security taxes in Europe (not to mention VAT and other types of taxation). The economy is growing,

I am actually a big fan of Arcanist. It rather simplifies the Git workflow management. You simply develop new code in a separate branch from master, and use `arc diff` from said branch to start a Pull Request (called a "diff" in t
