What Hacker News says?

  1. Thanks for the clarification. For those of us who don't use TypeScript day to day, I feel that it is ambigious. Without clicking the link, you wouldn't know if it's about a compiler or a runtime. What if they announced a bun competitor? https://betterstack.com/community/guides/scaling-nodejs/node... .
