The sad thing is —and I’m not sure why I’m saying this on hacker news— my parents see me as this unsocial person since I’m using my computer all day. They really want me to “hang out with the other kids” and they want good grades and AP classes too.

Part of the irony is when teachers try to shove how “college is not an option” down my throat, I only need to tell them that I have no degrees, yet I, at the age of 13, have a better hourly wage and sustainability than they do.

But that is not the point. I have no control over what classes I take. I have no control over whether or not I interact on an intellectual level with other students since every freshman class teacher thinks that collaboration in students means a better learning experience.

Also, your second to last paragraph about psychological warfare is really creepy when you read it out of context...or in context...

I think the one think that TypeScript needs to get it going is modularity. If another project like [harp](https://github.com/sintaxi/harp) could use TypeScript as a library and could compile the code without having to result to system commands would be a great thing.

However, I think if someone came up with a system to add optional typing through the use of string literals it would be awesome. That way we can have perfectly valid JavaScript with the benefits of certain JavaScript engines and type checkers. The string literal would be before a function declaration like:

    "add(Number, Number) -> Number";
    var add = function(x, y) { return x + y; };

That would basically specify that the function takes two numbers, and returns a number. This system would not replace a language like TypeScript, as TypeScript provides much more functionality. But it would allow for really simple optional typing and for TypeScript to take advantage of this(in the case that a JavaScript engine eventually implements and optimizes for these type declarations).

It's more of an analysis of the structure of Redis' code.

It's either OpenSUSE or Ubuntu based.

What do you hate about JavaScript? What's so wrong about it?

See my other comment. I too think that using .map, .filter, and .forEach are a bad idea. But also, if you see the code I would have written in the jsperf, I'd guess you say that I write JS like it's C.

So, good point.

Can you run a test with the code in the article? I even said: "And that's still not ideal. We should be able to do: [code]".

I don't ever advise using map, but you can't setup your own for loop in coffeescript. Actually, in the code shown, map isn't used at all. Just .filter and .forEach.

Here is my version: http://jsperf.com/no-coffeescript-orig

The 'manual' is what I would write myself.

As a vim user, what is so special about "chrome tabs"? I thought SublimeText already had very chrome-like tabs. Am I missing something?

Almost every project I have is completely unseen and just there for personal use or my stupid amusement.

What is wrong with pacman?
