    I have converted dozens of projects to TypeScript at this point, and in *every single one* there have been multiple bugs found as a result. Every! Single! One!

    I am looking for a full-time job. Being independent in open source for 3.5+ years has been wonderful. I've gotten done most of the high-level goals I wanted to, and miss having people & structure around me. If you know of a staff TypeScript+web developer role, let me know! šŸ™‚

    There are no type errors. Only happy little accidents. #bobross #happyhalloween #typescript

    I HATE when devs start ask for help after only using ChatGPT to get started using frameworks/libraries - instead of reading the first party docs. ChatGPT is often wrong about code. It's an assistant, not a replacement for documentation!!! šŸ˜”šŸ˜”šŸ˜” wasting my goddang time
