Since there's been some good replies to this I shall now add my oh so very important reply to the pile.

Water isn't actually wet, water wets things. Is a cup filled with water wet? No, the cup is dry and contains water. Are freshly washed dishes wet? Yeah, they have some water on them that hasn't dried off yet.

"Is water wet", "Is (breakfast) cereal a soup" and "Are hotdogs a sandwich" are some of my favorite stupid nonsense arguments to have. It's entirely pointless but there is an actual right answer going by the definitions

Until you've paid hundreds of dollars into using your own internet to play online (on servers your console company doesn't even pay for)

No you can't? Do you even know what the steam deck is? It's a hand held gaming device, like the Nintendo Switch. Adding a computer monitor to the steam decks price tag is nonsensical. Like the Switch you'd be using a TV if your hooking it into something. A wireless controller? Why? It's a steam deck it has a controller built in. Joystick grips? The fact you think those are needed goes to show how shit the standard console controllers are lmao.

I can't judge but wow. Impressive

You cannot have a string argument, arguments and variables in JS don't have a type. All you have in JS is objects. Actual functions, like full on function foo(){} are still objects, like you can actually store data on the things.

JavaScript doesn't have typed parameters or variables. The function expects a string and does things in the function body which converts the object into a string. JS shares this behavior with all dynamically typed languages and it's extremely useful in some contexts and extremely frustrating in others. It's down to what it's being used for. Dynamic languages make excellent scripting languages, see Python really just being a souped up shell lang

You have argued that it's expected to be a string congrats. You'll notice from the grammer you used that there isn't an actual type here, you specifically pointed out how your IDE displays a type hint which is only slightly better than somebody writing some form of documentation on what the type is. Dynamic languages don't have typed args, least none that I've heard of.

It's not a string argument though, it's JS. You can argue it's expected to be a string but like the rest of JS all you can know from the signature alone is that it takes an object. Hopefully your little ducky quacks the right way!

They're supposed to but well, you know

We don't "improve" diseases to make them deadilier and then just release them. The point of gain of function research essentially boils down to "How quickly can this disease become a serious issue and what do we expect that to look like?" with covid, thanks to gain of function research we knew it would quickly mutate and decrease in severity and we could significantly reduce harm by slowing the spread until it got to the point it's at today.

Subs are usually on screen for as long as people are saying the words. When they talk quickly they go by quickly. Also it just depends? There's a bunch of different Re:Zero subs a particular legal one standing out as being awful (good ol Crunchyroll). You probably just read slowly, you'll speed up with practice

Even Java has streams and stuff. Course Java so it's kind of weird (iterators are mutable and internally iterate the collection/whatever lazily) streams are lazy and only go through all the operations, mapping, filtering ect when you collect the elements somehow (like rust). JS is wild lol
