So that next time your coworker uses the wrong type, the compiler can scream at him: “NO I WONT COMPILE THIS YOU DUMBASS, LOOK JOHN SAID ON LINE 863 THAT IT SHOULD BE A DOUBLE, NOT A FLOAT FOR FUCK SAKE”
💯% accurate. funny how the typescript developer thinks this is some kind of “gotcha!”… like maybe just try a language besides typescript and find out for yourself 😆
I’m not sure if you’re being rhetorical or not, but “string|number” is definitely correct here. A computer could definitely figure this out, but typing is for the benefit of the coders more than the code itself. It’s basically functional documentation
Yeah that’s what I’m saying, I hate it when coworkers will assign everything as “any” just to avoid the scary red squigglies. Oh well I guess that’s what code reviews are for 🙃
i like when my strongly typed language can type itself, why should i have to type extra words because the compiler is stupid?

Tell me you are a Java dev without telling me you are a a Java dev 😂
As a JS dev, I can only wish we had those types 🥲
you can still have that without having to declare the type manually. check out Swift or OCaml for example

Type error unless there’s an implementation of
+that specifies adding together and integer and a string.💯% accurate. funny how the typescript developer thinks this is some kind of “gotcha!”… like maybe just try a language besides typescript and find out for yourself 😆

my complaint is that typescript is stupid, yes. so why wouldn’t i compare to what other languages do that is less stupid?
on the plus side, at least now i know that the ad-hominem minded devs came here too, and brought their righteousness with them.

OCaml 😍
In the world of C and pointer arithmetic this makes perfect sense /s
