I was referring to this article which quotes the IEA for industrial energy costs at around $0.085/kWh, versus $0.34/kWh in the UK. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2024/09/26/b…

It’s not running TS directly, it’s just preconfigured to transpile TS to JS without the user having to bring extra tooling. Neat, but you’ll see the docs still recommend tsc for ty…

Yeah, tend to agree here. The idea that the west knows best and less developed countries need a saving from themselves feels wrong to me. The data is out there, it’s trivial for th…
