Thank god they haven't jumped on the Rust bandwagon.

@Prudenprocom

Thankfully my notepad and calculator app don't need that jumped up speed.

@xinaesthetic

Awesome... Just tried it on my main work repo and it's very much faster, although also I'm not sure why but it is giving quite different output than tsc (ie, no errors according to tsc). Something to look at next week.

@baka_baca

I already know a few code bases that could benefit!

@fishynicky_

tried it on a react project but it did not pick up the type errors I included. the blog post mentioned jsx support but I don't think it is complete

@rjmunro

10X is pronounced "ten times", not "ten ex". It's a multiplication symbol, not a letter X.

@u007james

it ate tons of memory and the tsgo process stuck running even after quiting visual code. later on, it crashes

@kasper369

Hopefully rust next

@doodocina

oh finally ts is not 1000x slower then normal languages but only 100x

@Kampouse

UGH WHY YOU SAY REWRITE its *porting*  they keep the same behaviour

@lithium

The fact that they didn't choose to self-host is all you need to know, it's a toy language and not to be taken seriously by anyone doing actual work, especially if it's performance sensitive.
