Coming from mac to windows, a big surprise was how ridiculously slow printf is on any of the ms terminals (cmd, powershell, windows terminal). Git bash does not have this problem when you are running something pretty verbose yet want to view the output in the terminal

It's late here, looks like I did a few wording mistakes. The actual compilation (turning ts/tsx into js) is very fast and not a problem at all, what I meant is the typechecking

My only wish is that the compile times were faster. I know typically people will say there's incremental compilation, but I think this problem leaks into many other places. Like vscode suggestions, go to definition, custom build scripts for which you may need to process types etc. I recently had to use eclipse for some java work and it seemed lightning fast in comparison. This is my only (pretty big) complaint about TypeScript, otherwise it's a very useful tool

Google is being sued for a different reason. I think it is for blocking a deal with a phone maker where they would have epic store installed

How would that be worse? Always having the option to install whatever you want on device you own is the most pro customer thing ever
