minus-squareVictor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·12 hours agoType inference is a pretty big thing in TypeScript as well though. In fact it’s probably the biggest thing about it, IMO.
minus-squarecalcopiritus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 hours agoI don’t know typescript. But if that’s the case, this meme doesn’t make much sense. Who writes the types of variables in a language with type inference unless forced by the compiler?
minus-squareVictor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 hours agoMaybe it’s a language without type interference? Either way, it sometimes makes sense in TypeScript to help the type system out a little bit. let array: string[] = []; In this situation, the type system can’t infer that the empty array should be a string array, because there are no items to go by.

That looks like rust ngl
