We use TypeScript for our node.js backends.
We had two that started out vanilla, but it became too painful to maintain.

Writing code that can’t be scientifically proven to be correct on all hardware it might run on means you don’t care about code quality. /s
The Internet is full of people with a bloated ego trying to justify their opinion and gatekeeping others.
I see this more and more in software as well.
Not sure if it’s always been like this, or if I just notice it more.
Same way there’s thousands of people giving you a guide to write a task list in , but as soon as you want to use anything slightly more complex than what you can learn from working a few hours with something you quickly run out of material and is usually left to fend for yourself.
Double standards much? What is your argument for it being better?
My arguments is that is. But, hey, read it whatever way makes you feel better about your own opinion.
You can take SpaceX out of the equation and it still is a massive money spend.
Compare the cost of the entire Apollo program (adjusted for inflation) to the SLS program.
You might be surprised.
Carrot or stick?
It probably wouldn’t. Or you would have to wait a long time.
Try streaming from a site across the world and see how it is today. Then imagine saturating the networks with loads of it.
Would definitely need new infrastructure to cache popular content.
Now, you see - that’s a completely different argument.
And also validates my point, all speed limits are tradeoffs.
Don’t get me wrong though, 20mph/30kph limits are commonplace where I live and honestly surprised to hear that it wasn’t everywhere.
For improved safety in the future we’ll need better driving assistance systems in the cars, and finally to replace humans altogether.
If you follow that logic to its conclusion - 0 is the safest speed limit.
(Not trying to argue about the topic, just pointing out the obvious - all speed limits are a tradeoff)
I mean - if the button says “buy” or “purchase” it’s not renting a license, no matter what the fine print in the terms say.
That’s at least how it should be.
The problem isn’t storing it, it’s hosting and delivering content.
YouTube, Netflix, and all the other big streaming platforms have huge amounts of servers around the world delivering content with minimal latency and without saturating the Internet exchanges with gigantic amounts of data traffic.
If we were to do this peer-2-peer people would have to get used to waiting for pages and videos to load again.
Fossil methane is still fossil. Ie. not part of the CO2 cycle, and thus contributing to the greenhouse effect. Methane itself is 20 times more potent, and we should do everything we can to limit methane emissions, both fossil and natural.
Agriculture is a big source of natural methane emissions, and even fairly small dietary changes can significantly reduce livestock emissions, but don’t see anyone doing that either.
Highly suspect small gas line leaks won’t be fixed either.
