i dont know typescript and thus hate it

why can't my fucking ide extract the type of a thing

i've no fucking clue if it's a function or not or the syntax

statically typed language gang rise up,

dynamic can be good for certain use cases and if you know what you're doing i suppose

@jestdotty Rust was created by Graydon Hoare, Javascript was created by Brendan Eich, and TS was co-created(afaik) by Anders Hejlsberg.

But Rust is love, Rust is life

@jestdotty Checking this what I can find is that dherman was part of the Ecmascrip4 committee.

That was an attempt to reshape js and improve it. But it apparently went to far and no browser manufacturer at the time adopted it.

But that started 4 years after javascript was created and after it had been turned over to the ecma standards foundation.

So dherman was not part of the creation of js and it sounds like mich of hit ideas for it also never made it into ecmascript at the time.

Could be that parts of it got adopted over time, but he most likely brought it with him to rust.

Which could be why his is not mentioned with js as such.

Then don't use it?
