It leads to typescript
You get surprises from npm
I spent way too long today figuring out why my app was doing something that it's NOT supposed to do on weekends.
I read Luxon's docs (pretty cool lib tbh) again and again, and tried everything I could think of to get isWeekend to return a sane result.
Turns out I was pulling a somewhat older version of Luxon, where isWeekend didn't exist. In any sane language, I expect I'd get a huge warning about a property that doesn't exist, but alas...
Typescript helps me keep my sanity, but juuuuust barely.
If isWeekend doesn't exist, then the weekend doesn't exist, so it's naturally false.
That's why JavaScript gets pushed so hard - it's part of the capitalist agenda to keep us working 7 days a week
