gollark: Although I think it would be in python too because... python bad?
gollark: You see, in JS even something like "using an undefined variable" is a *runtime* ReferenceError.
gollark: I actually use TypeScript without even... writing types... the majority of the time, because it means I actually get working autocomplete, and my IÐE will detect errors which for some insane reason JS only notices at runtime.
gollark: TS has compilation anyway, it basically just involves removing the type annotations (this is actually separate from the typechecking).
gollark: Oh, that is JOKE™, `use strict` isn't very big.
