I disagree, I don't want my project to successfully build at all if I have type errors.

Wow, this is fortuitous for me. I've been wanting something like this for quite some time, and was literally just thinking about it this morning. I've had a lot of ideas for certai…

Thanks for details. Here's my response to most of them (some of this is definitely anecdotal of course). > - Slow debug cycle due to increased compile time. If using TDD, it takes …

> It's not worth it. Productivity will drop enormously How does TypeScript make your "productivity drop enormously"? It has type inference, union types, looks just like ES6, and th…

Have you used TypeScript 3.0? They improved the type errors a lot. I'd highly recommend giving it another shot.

One interesting thing about Dark Souls is that there is quite a bit of ambiguity around what the "age of dark" actually implies, and there's a lot of hints that it might actually b…

Yes, but you still need insulin on keto. In fact, starting keto can be dangerous for a T1D at first until you find out what your new, lower, requirements are. You put yourself at r…

The article WAS focused on type 1, though, where there is no cure, from diet or otherwise. It's absolutely revolutionary for those of us with type 1.

> The era of the intelligent cloud and intelligent edge is upon us. I still have no idea what "intelligent edge" is supposed to mean.

For me it would have the same things that make Typescript appealing: - Full access to a large and mature ecosystem (one that Crystal doesn't quite have) - The ability to gradually …

> i fail to see the benefit of a language like Crystal. For me it's a Ruby like language with static typing. For my typical use cases I don't really need the extra performance, but…

I've been a fan of Ruby for about 5 years, but lately I've been leaning a lot more heavily towards statically typed languages. Which is why Crystal is at the top of my "want to lea…

I'd recommend trying out create-react-app if you want to learn React without having to worry about all the build tooling craziness. Eventually you'll have to start fighting with th…

Good point, I wasn't really thinking about styling 3rd party components. styled-components makes it sort of okay, but still feel hacky.

styled-components are actually really nice, so I don't think it's fair to say "styling is React's worst part". This seems like a more general criticism of React's agnosticism when …

> two way data binding Maybe it's better in Vue than it was in AngularJS, but this seems like a downside to me.

This is the first I've heard of it. What, in your opinion, makes it so much better from a developer experience perspective?

Believe me, I'm more than aware of the negative side effects and potential dangers (especially with Xiidra, which is a new medication without long term studies). Xiidra is costing …

Nope, never took Accutane. I got a full examination from a specialist (including a LipiView analysis) and the conclusion was that I don't have MGD. My glands look mostly fine, and …

I've had a lot of issues with dry eye, largely related to my computer usage. (Although it's sort of a combination of 3 factors: I work on the computer, I'm a T1 Diabetic, and I liv…

They addressed this argument in the article, and why smartphones are inherently different than TV (or any number of other distractions that people have worried about in the past).

Same. It's funny because occasionally when you call support they require you to answer one of those questions. "That's correct, my childhood pet's name was 1xs3^&szx!@!24"
