Feel like this joke would work better with TS | JS. Since that's the point of the former. I don't know how rust and ocaml are related?
The initial creator of Rust, Graydon Hoare, took lots of inspiration from OCaml. In fact, the first Rust compiler was written in OCaml.
I appreciate that fun fact. The meme now makes more sense.
JS doesn't do any type inference. Ocaml Connor l type checker knows all the types and is completely type safe without type annotations.
