The TypeScript Knight's Fatal Weakness

Content When l'm shitting on JavaScript and the TypeScript developer thinks l'm on his side

OH. MY. GOD. The IDE is not just highlighting the error—it's offering to FIX IT WITH AI! 💀 This is the digital equivalent of handing a junior dev the keys to production and saying "whatever happens, happens!" The computer is literally telling us "children doesn't exist" and then offering to write our code FOR US. Excuse me while I update my LinkedIn profile to "Former Developer" because if AI can debug React props, what am I even doing with my life?! Next thing you know, it'll be writing passive-aggressive comments about my variable naming conventions!

The eternal pain of expecting a simple true or false but getting "Yes" instead! Boolean questions should have binary answers, but somehow non-technical folks (and occasionally that one backend dev) manage to return strings like "Sure", "I think so", or my personal favorite: "It depends." The compiler in my brain throws a TypeError: Cannot convert String to Boolean every single time. The worst part? You can't even use !!response to coerce it properly!

The holy war of naming conventions rages on! Some brave soul dared to preach the gospel of snake_case in a world dominated by camelCase zealots. Just like in biblical times, speaking the truth about proper variable naming gets you crucified in code reviews. The underscores shall inherit the codebase! Meanwhile, the PascalCase disciples and kebab-case heretics watch from the sidelines as the great naming schism continues to divide developer communities since the dawn of programming.

Therapy for programmers looks different. The code snippet shows the classic "if not condition, do whatever" pattern - the digital equivalent of shrugging and walking away from a problem. That smug look? It's the face of someone who's written untraceable bugs into production and feels absolutely zero remorse about it. The real mental health crisis in tech isn't burnout, it's the emotional void where code accountability should be.

STOP THE MADNESS! React developers have officially lost their minds with this absurd syntax from the "future." The code using use = useUsing("using") is like the JavaScript equivalent of saying "Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo" but somehow WORSE! 💀 React hooks were already confusing enough with their useState , useEffect , useContext , useReducer , useMemo , useCallback , useRef , and now they're just trolling us with useUsing ?! Is this what we've come to? Next they'll release useUseUsingUsedUses and expect us to keep our sanity!
