The first (?) interactive TypeScript type debugger. Primarily built for the byte-code/VM of the new type checker, but is actually already quite useful to debug types by simply stepping through it.💪. I will compile it to WebAssembly in the next days to let it run in the browser.

we have the same thing in Germany, but it's based on social pressure and in the name of "equality". A 10x engineer won't get even 2x the salary, often not even 50% more. performance is not rewarded. only in your own company, but then the state kills you with regulation and taxes.

I just found out about a new insane and stupid 🇫🇷 labor law:. If you have 10 devs and one absolutely crushes it, you can’t just give him/her a big discretionary $50k bonus at the end of the year. The 9 others can sue for the same, in the name of "equal treatment", and they would.

watching tech influencer videos; using OSS from VC-backed companies; reading reddit/twitter to "educate yourself"; outsource thinking to chatgpt; not having a passion code project; more talking than doing; communicating in memes to avoid accountability; not knowing fundamentals.

I did so many software projects before I started working professionally, open-source projects, electrical engineering, etc that I jumped over junior roles entirely. the mindset is the problem.

I don't understand. If junior software engineers are not hired then who will takeover after the senior veteran engineers retire?.

I've written now an email to Apache Foundation, Software Freedom Conservancy, B Corporation, Free Software Foundation, and OpenSource Initiative. Let's see what happens and if open-source protection still matters.

I need your help to understand why. I am too incompetent to see it. I know docs and credibility is bad. is that where I need to put in hundreds of hours to improve it, is this my achilles' heel?.

let's be brutally honest: why did you choose nestjs and not deepkit? what did we do wrong, what is missing? do we need more street credibility?.

ok serious talk, why was deepkit not a wild success, and why has it not replaced nestjs yet? what do we need to improve? what is missing?.

I wanted deepkit to replace nestjs, to be what Spring is but in TypeScript. it seems to be failing, and I don't fully understand why. docs are not good, I agree, my skill in writing docs seems to be extremely bad, but is it that bad?.
