Interesting argument. I have used both typescript and JavaScript, but I spend 99% of my time writing firmware in C, because of this I LOVE strongly typed languages, and I get kinda annoyed/paranoid when my variable COULD change type quietly so end up doing (perhaps too much) type checks etc.

I can say with surety I hate programming in both Typescript and JavaScript, but I definitely hate Typescript less because of the typing.

Having said that, I don’t really like the compiled javascript that comes out of the typescript compiler, because it puts some distance between the user and the code and I am all for clarity, especially when people have to go out of their way to not run this code.

Always thought garlic bread is such a steal. Often you can get 2 (small) baguettes for less than £1 and G Bread is so good. When my plans of world domination come in, free garlic bread for everyone is first on the agenda.

While I don’t think these numbers are particularly doctored, I have learned caution from using ourworldindata.

I believe it is largely funded by Bill Gates and so has biases to retain the status quo, as this keeps the billionaires at the top.

Of course there are no unbiased sources, but something to keep in mind.

Very small and niche change to an i2c driver, so that composite devices will work with this driver.

It’s a rarely used driver, but I found an issue with my stuff using it, so thought could spare some people the pain of figuring it out again.

6.6 is special to me because it contains my first Linux patch, woo!

But even in the image example, how would that work? The people have no momentum, they wouldn’t flop out, just fall back through, and then stay half in half not. According to you, air resistance wouldn’t even push them out because as soon as it goes through the portal the air is not moving relative to the people. I think your blatant lack of respect for relativity is unnerving and gets super confusing very quickly.
