We have different concept about what great news is.

Compiling to an interpreted high level language is crazy. I just refuse to believe we haven't got a better solution to yet.

As someone who works with typescript daily, you're not wrong. It's an extremely overcomplicated glorified linter that tries and mostly succeeds in catching basic type errors. But it also provides false confidence when you concoct something that shows no errors but doesn't behave how you expect.

Don't worry, they're planning JS0 and JSSugar (IIRC) so you're forced to compile anyway :D
