Average TS developer

tomatoes are fruits that are often used as vegetables and are botanically classified as berries*

*according to wikipedia and my interpretation of it

The fact that this meme makes sense to anyone demonstrates how dynamic typed programming languages cause brain damage.

I like TypeScript less for its ability to categorize my grocery list and more for its ability to stop anyone from putting cyanide on it.

I'd say its more like the gas tank telling you that you aren't allowed to pour in brake fluid as that could lead to runtime errors.

Tomato: Any

Biologists: but tomato is a berry, which is subset of fruits

Am I missing the joke? Tomatoes are fruits.

I swear to god, sometimes I really don't know what Typescript really wants from me. It's like some old god: you know it needs a sacrifice but the god is not telling you exactly what he wants. So you can only try and pray.

I'm a bit disappointed that nobody mentioned Rust yet.

Guess it's not only Typescript that likes to argue with the developer while missing the entire point...

Yeah... What?

Tomatoes are fruits.

Report -> I'm in this picture and I don't like it

I've seen versions of this meme before but I just noticed what he's wearing. Is that a Mortal Kombat shirt?

Intelligence is knowing that tomato is a fruit, wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad

"If only there were an easier way"

I don't like it but God help me if I try to bring up that we shouldn't use it. I understand it I just don't like how it slows everything down for in my opinion is not much gain.

As someone who is relatively new to webdev stuff, I gotta ask... what is the point of typescript? Like, is it faster than JS, does it have more functions or smth? To me it just looks like JS with extra steps and a really, REALLY cursed way to declare variables.
