Oh, that's unexpected idea. I hope I'll try it one day, thank you.
I use FireWire as well. Spent a month connecting it, that was a devastating part. It turned out, only IEE1394 cards with TI chips works with Sony cameras. And only some cables. But to me, result is worth it.
I film my kids with the same camera in 2026. I don't know how to explain it, but it feels completely different. When I film something on a phone I feel awkward but with this camera I could film everyone and it's much more comfortable to all (including adults I mean)
Normally you would write a program that is a game of Doom when you run it (you create a program, then compile it and run). Dmitri created a program that does nothing and he don't even run it. But while it's compiling, it does a lot of tricky things to make typescript compiler to run Doom as a side effect.
It's extremely hacky because Typescript is not even a runtime, it's not meant to run any code at all. Typescript is a thing that takes .ts file and produces .js file (which you then run using different program - a javascript runtime).
