Bundlers will convert let/const to var, assign classes and functions to var etc but generally people don't write it themselves unless they want to (ab)use its semantics for performance reasons.
Maybe; I don't know anything about it. I will note that that belief could easily develop, true or not, if twitch streams start out in low resolution and increase as you buffer them.
A third-party client has room to make a dramatic improvement on the twitch experience by not dropping audio while you make the switch from the ad stream to the content stream.
I was hoping to hear how are php types better than TS instead of another rant about how Rust is the greatest. Anyone?
By the way, having lived in Scala 2 for a few years, Rust is half-assed. Type system leaks through the fingers when working with async collections. Future.sequence from Scala makes great cli apps. Scala collections are a work horse. The only thing from Rust I like is the shorthand question mark return (compiler magic for Result type).
