Terminally online insomniac code monkey from burgerland.
Off the top of my head there was Fast and Furious under Obama.
I guess what I’m trying to say is that while Typescript is great, the types just make the development experience much nicer but don’t actually prevent any of the fuckery of Javascript. As for whether it’s strongly typed or not, I don’t find the term helpful. People call Typescript strongly typed, but is a language really strongly typed if you can tell it to ignore types? Strong is a relative term that doesn’t tell you much about the type system.
I looked at some of the discussions on r/worldnews and a bunch of redditors were saying that China deliberately floated the balloon over burgerland to provoke them to shoot it down and then denounce them for shooting it down. The purpose of this was to spur Chinese nationalism and distract from the evils the see see pee pee poo poo subject their citizens to.
The irony was completely lost on them.

There’s some new features. You can filter the modlog, sort posts by oldest, and there’s some kind of language feature on comments now.
Do these people think ignoring the national and global level of the problem will better address it? Do they think the oligarchy won’t equally quell your pitifully anarchist attempt with tanks and artillery the same as any other attempt to break free of the system?
Judging from their comments in the pic, it seems more like they’ve given up on addressing the problem at all. Both posters are resigned to climate change destroying the world.
My first pull request for something more than a one line change got merged into the lemmy js client today. I’m officially a lemmy contributor.
