In some countries you are a disease away of financial bankruptcy. Good luck being able to 100% guarantee a living.

Yup, but far from everywhere.

Furthermore, this is the first generation that is worse off than the previous one

Strong doubt 🤨 Which generation are we talking about? Lots of wars and plagues and stuff in history have made a generation of people worse off than their parents. That obviously didn’t stop us from procreating.

Maybe I’m a pessimist, but introducing a child into this roulette is not the kindest if you think about it.

Definitely are, or maybe more accurately a perspectivist, if that’s a thing. There are lots of countries and societies where bringing children up is not a “roulette” or “child abuse”. Everyone I know has good means and nothing but love for their children, in spite of (sometimes harsh) difficulties.

And we are more emotionally aware of ourselves and our children in this generation than ever before. For the first time, a generation of parents are raising themselves and their children simultaneously. It’s very emotionally and mentally taxing but it’s a very good step in the right direction. We are listening to our kids and understanding their needs.

Have a good day, try not to generalize a (personal?) bad situation. ❤️

Giving birth is child abuse and the most selfish act possible.

Hard disagree. 🤷‍♂️ Surely depends on who you are and your means of providing for the child, both materialistically and emotionally. That’s just my opinion.

Definitely bus drivers’ error. They are the big vehicles, they are the ones who need to pay extra attention to whether or not they will fit anywhere.

Definitely, yes, still insane and unbelievably tragic.

Thank you!

What’s that in his hand in the last pane?

That’s not a real number I hope. Surely not.

I would actually love to hear the rationale behind migrating from TypeScript to JSDoc. Mind boggling to me.

Especially nowadays when there is promising work towards very fast, Rust-based TypeScript tooling, which web devs are in love with.

So yah, very interesting.

But yeah, DHH 🖕🖕

😅 Alright, that’s… “good”! Were you friends with Bam Margera by any chance? 😁

Ah alright 🙂 My pleasure! Yeah I wouldn’t even consider JSDoc if I had the choice of TypeScript. I even did some years of Advent Of Code in TypeScript. It’s performant enough and simple to employ some kind of quasi functional programming style with it. I think it’s great.

If it looks mostly like Haskell but has better tooling, I’m in. I have yet to manage to successfully set up a Haskell environment on my own PC. 😅 I am obviously missing something.

JSDoc is much more cumbersome than using TypeScript. That’s it. It clutters the code in a way that TypeScript somehow avoids. TS types are smoothly integrated in the code itself, IMO. Not as much the case with JSDoc.

Fully agree.

I hear good things about OCaml? Anyone tried that?

Chiming in as a professional TS dev. It’s really a joy to do web dev work in the post TS world.

Or could it. I mean I like a bit of ass play and shit but a colonoscopy doesn’t sound nice.

Oh man.

I was the only one who he wouldn’t hit.

If you’re implying what I think you’re implying, there would have to be some sanctifying freaking breakthroughs for me to look past that.

Hearing loss and diabetes do, would a colonoscopy catch that? 🤔😅

When I say kid’s shows, I’m not really talking about The Bad Batch. That show cut deep into me as an adult with my own children. That show is not for kids.

No, I mean more stuff like these template cookie cutter Disney shows, like Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures. Those are utterly not interesting at all, and I don’t consider them canon for my own sanity of not feeling like I need to watch them. 😄

My kids watched some episodes of that show while I was listening in from the side, and it could’ve just as easily been an episode of literally any other kid’s show, like Paw Patrol or something, but with a Star Wars theme to it. Same basic messages as any American kid’s show. And a bit overly tailored towards an American audience as well, specifically. Not really looking to subject my children to that. 🙅‍♂️

I like everything Star Wars. Except the kid’s shows, of course. Didn’t even watch those. But everything else I’ve seen, almost.

Wtf would cause him to smash it in the first place? Sounds initially like a MAJOR, MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR anger management issue. Holy shit.
