Ask HN: Is TypeScript worth it?
This feels like telling Haskell developers that they should use unsafePerformIO and unsafeCoerce more.

It's much more like reminding TS developers that Go developers have to use `interface{}` all the time, because some types are actually hard for compilers/typecheckers to deal with.

Maybe? Occasionally telling ts to shut up or lying about types is better than not using it because you have a hard time getting 100% type correctness.
