Typescript is a really powerful language due to the fact that it is superset of JavaScript. It allows you to do things with types that you cant do in other strongly typed languages like Java or C#. Learning JavaScript first, you would have an easier time grasping advanced typescript concepts. But like others said, JavaScript does allow you to learn bad habits. It takes years to learn how to write JavaScript in a way where you won’t shoot yourself in the foot. TypeScript first would theoretically help keep you on a learning path that would mitigate picking up bad habits. But typescript is a superset of JavaScript after all. If one is determined to sidestep all the nice typings that TypeScript provides you, one can and you will lose all the benefits of TypeScript anyways.

I would recommend gamemaker.io. Although I haven’t used it in a long time, I think their philosophy is still the same. You get to use no-code to get your feet wet. When you need more flexibility you can use their custom scripting language. So you essentially get to become acquainted with their technology while programming in no-code and then when you switch to coding, it’s not as big of a leap since you’re not transitioning to a completely new technology.

Ever since I’ve switched to DuckDuckGo, my searching experience has been way better. Google’s new mobile experience is absolute garbage.

Even though I own a pair of nice noise cancelling Sony headphones, I’ve stopped using it completely. I now only use my airpods pro. I think it’s because I hated Sony’s app. The airpods pro are just so much easier to use.

Ironic though considering he himself is wheelchair bound

Honestly I think the delivery cost is there because people are willing to pay it. Because they’d be “leaving money on the table” if they didn’t levy fees that people are willing to pay. I dont think the fee exists for any other reason.

You’re using a /s tag but that’s literally how it feels to live in Texas

Yes and Id like to put in my two cents. I love driving. And it’s been my experience, having owned both manuals and automatics, that it is way more attainable to achieve fun engaging driving experiences safely when I drive manual. It’s far more difficult to attain that safely when driving automatic. The reason is that automatic cars are usually only fun when accelerating, turning at high speeds, or recklessly speeding. Manuals can be fun pretty much no matter what you do. So it’s perfectly reasonable for me to expect to have a good time when driving safely in a manual, and in my experience there is little to no motivation to pull unsafe maneuvers in the name of having fun. Point is there are in fact people who drive for fun who don’t feel the need to drive recklessly.

Fox News is a joke

Personally, I’m loyal to Beehaw. I like the culture that it is trying to grow. But I like how I can subscribe to things outside of beehaw as long the instance has federation enabled.
