Doom now runs in @typescriptlang.org types. What a journey this one's been.

tomorrow

We learned a lot throwing @squiggleconf.com in October, and we thought it'd be fun to share some of the screw-ups. Turns out running a conference is pretty complicated!

February's Ann Arbor meetup will feature Travis McGeehan talking about his project T3Boy, a browser based gameboy emulator that pairs the portability of a @nextjs.org website with WebAssembly to build a speedrunning powerhouse. RSVP here: www.linkedin.com/events/pairi...

🚦Signals!🚦 Welcome Chandler Prall back to talk about this Stage 1 TC39 Proposal. If Signals lands, then it will bring unprecedented unity to state management across the entire 🌌scriptiverse🌌! link below, as per uzh 👇

🎄Advent of TypeScript 2024🎄 is starting in a few hours!! We were honored to help TypeHero again this year write some of the code and prompts. Check it out: adventofts.com Although it starts nice and soft, this year's last few challenges are absolutely bruuuuuutal

🎉🎉🎉🎉 WE ACTUALLY DID IT! It's done. It works. We did it. Can't believe it! We have it. We have the final type. The @typescript world has quite a fireball headed its way. Over a year of relentless effort by the whole team. Those who know, know (don't say/hint yet if you do!).

Tip: ❌ don't talk in terms of "explicit function return types (or not)" Instead: ✅ talk about "disabling @typescriptlang.org's incredibly powerful inferencing (or not)"

Now does it make sense? There's a #TypeScript implementation detail you've gotta be aware of first.

10 bucks says you don't know what's going on with this @typescriptlang.org! 😜 playground link: tsplay.dev/wRP97m

We saw some concerns on Hacker News about YouTube experimenting with server-side ad injection so we thought it'd be a good time to remind you that all MiTS content on all platforms has monetization turned off (wherever possible).

🤩 a super long-requested @typescriptlang.org feature is coming in a few days to v5.5: Dan Vanderkam's work on inferred type predicates! So, naturally, we did a deep dive on it with Dan, the PR author himself!

We absolutely ❤️love❤️ that we have a community where so often this happens: 1. someone's angry/enraged about something and comments 2. someone else calmly pushes back 2a. we ask clarification (gently and kindly) 3. original person apologizes 4. a productive conversation ensues

🕺 we're back with a video on ReScript (the ReasonML successor)! Rob Meyer and his team have been using ReScript at Autobooks for years (!!). This talk focuses on the language itself: started by Jordan Walke (creator of @reactjs.bsky.social), it's got lots of functional programming bits!

📢 attention functional programming nerds (also React people)📢 ReScript (you know, the OCaml-ish compile-to-js language made by the creator of React) is the topic of our next meetup. What do you wanna know about it? Let us know here and we'll ask (we an expert speaking on it).
