LLMs are great with Typescript. But the fact remains that there are many different browsers and several runtimes (Node, Deno, Bun), each of which may have slightly different rules.
> As someone familiar with those ecosystems, I'm have trouble envisioning the degree of operator error or imprecision that would cause this to be a problem.
Because you are familiar with the ecosystem? Just like python devs saying it's normal to juggle with 3 package managers to run a simple script.
Back to your original point: You also are biased by what you are used to use.
Thankfully, I don't have to touch any JS project anymore, but oh god what a nightmare it is.
Even just having CLI tools requiring constant updates to not break randomly during the day is enough pain that I won't touch that with a 10m pole.
I genuinely think you're having a mental health episode. I don't see any other way to justify your reaction to my post. Or the fact that you've now gone through my post history and made several more rude posts.
On the off chance that I'm wrong and this is just your normal personality (in which case, God help you): what extraordinary claim did I make? Quote it.
> I genuinely think you're having a mental health episode
It's not acceptable to post like this on HN. It counts as name-calling, snark, flamebait and other breaches of the guidelines. We're trying for curious conversation here, not this. I understand the other commenter was the first to escalate, but it takes two to make a hellish subthread like this.
I think you have a pattern not reading comments which answer your questions before you ask them which then causes negative reactions.
> On the off chance that I'm wrong and this is just your normal personality (in which case, God help you):
When asked to stop making personal attacks, you made more. I've flagged your comment and reached out to @dang, I think your behavior is inappropriate for this forum.
Looking at the site guidelines, do you feel your comments are appropriate and following the spirit of the site rules? Really?
If your first comment in the subthread wasn't escalatory enough, this phrase in your second comment was way out of line:
> Surely you're not just talking out of your ass
It's not cool to start a flamewar like this then call in moderator support when replies get heated. We can't take sides in a flamewar like this when both participants are going at each other.
You evidently understand plenty how HN's guidelines and moderation work. Please make more effort to uphold the standards that are expected here in future.
Maybe your cultural frame is that mental health isn't a protected category and it's an appropriate insult. That's not what the law says in professional environments and that's not been my experience in professional discourse.
If your attitude is that if one person litters it's now ok for anyone else to dump on protected categories, it's your clubhouse and you can set the rules.
That's your right, and it's also my right to say that I don't want to be associated with this forum even indirectly.
Could you provide me with a good email address to send my CCPA request to delete all my data and comments and account? I sent emails to a few YC addresses with:
"I am writing to request that you delete my personal data from all of your paper and/or computer records pursuant to Section 1798.105 of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
To the extent that you rely on consent to process my personal data, I withdraw that consent. To the extent that you rely on your 'legitimate interest' to process my personal data, I object to the processing as there are no overriding legitimate grounds.
If you are selling my personal data to third parties, please consider this email as my direction to you not to sell my personal data to third parties.
Please don’t ask me to perform a self-service process such as locating my information on your website, filling out a form, or providing a mobile advertising ID. These requests place an undue burden on my side.
If you are not able to comply with my request to delete all of my personal data, please advise as to the specific reason for which this request cannot be acted on. Please advise which sections and subsections of the law you are relying upon, and identify the specific reason for which you are relying on those exceptions, such as which legal obligation, or internal purpose or use. Please delete all my personal data which does not fall under these exceptions."
I have not received a response.
I can write again in 46 days with a complaint attached mentioning you personally and a letter from my state representative indicating they'd like to know more as well. Or you can resolve this quickly in a mutually amicable way by just deleting my account and all my comments.
I replied to the other commenter before I replied to you and made it clear that attacks on fellow community members with insults about mental health are not acceptable.
