 I knew DHH is an idiot programmer but this change inducts his name in the damn idiot programmer hall of fame https://world.hey.com/dhh/turbo-8-is-dropping-typescript-70165c01 
 @0af6133c a major PR, which changes the language and a bunch of core things, reviewed for 2 hours before being merged, that seems… risky.

Still I believe the term idiot programmer is not productive and somewhat beneath you. Let’s go with… adventurous programmer, like chasing polar bears in their natural habitat, wearing only thermal underwear, style adventurous.

After all, you seem to regularly feel like the feedback you get on your code is less than respectful, so let’s be the bigger people? 
 @0af6133c Sounds like "TS won't let me do terrible and stupid things anymore so I like plain JS more.". Talk about unnecessary risks.
