Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
It leads to typescript
You get surprises from npm
I spent way too long today figuring out why my app was doing something that it's NOT supposed to do on weekends.
I read Luxon's docs (pretty cool lib tbh) again and again, and tried everything I could think of to get isWeekend to return a sane result.
Turns out I was pulling a somewhat older version of Luxon, where isWeekend didn't exist. In any sane language, I expect I'd get a huge warning about a property that doesn't exist, but alas...
Typescript helps me keep my sanity, but juuuuust barely.
That's fair. Typescript has to cook with the existing js ecosystem.
