The payoff is reduced cognitive load. Essentially you’re offloading a bunch of it to the type system at the cost of type annotations. A simple example: const add = (a, b) => a+b can do quite a few surprising things depending on

The syntax for line breaks make it incompatible with JavaScript. Probably not terrible because doing an eval of untrusted json would be a bad idea but they could have used back ticks which would have these useful properties: - still JavaScr

I use teams at work. I hadn’t used discord much but then did for a hackthebox CTF. I found discord way better for work that involves dynamic collaboration ie where folk are often working individually or jumping into each other’s streams to

I enjoy using both languages. The significant performance difference between the two for me is compilation speed. Size of binaries produced is also important if you’re shipping them around.

q is awesome. Initially I wasn’t sure what the underlying engine was so was amazed at how good the sql support was. Turns out it feeds all the data into sqlite under the covers so you can do some pretty complex queries against arbitrary csv

The Jetbrains suite. Lightens the cognitive load, makes it easier to refactor and keep code tidy. All of which allow me build better software. For almost everything else e.g. git, learning how to use the command line instead of a UI is the
