Will JavaScript type annotations kill TypeScript?
The creators of Svelte and Turbo 8 both dropped TS recently saying that "it's not worth it".
Yes: If JavaScript gets type annotations then there's no reason for TypeScript to exist.

No: TypeScript remains the best language for structuring large enterprise applications.

TBD: The existing user base and its corpensource owner means that TypeScript isn’t likely to reach EOL without a putting up a fight.

I hope they both die. I mean, if you really need strong types in the browser then you could leverage WASM and use a real programming language.

The New Cloud Foundry Container Runtime: Just The Facts

The Cloud Foundry Container Runtime is the new name for Kubo, which is Kubernetes running on BOSH. In today’s episode of The New Stack Makers, TNS founder Alex Williams caught up with Cloud Foundry Foundation Chief Technology Officer Chip Childers to learn more about Cloud Foundry’s plans for this new runtime, with Childers highlighting how BOSH is serving the needs of today’s developers.

Childers went on to note that the Cloud Foundry Container Runtime and application runtime will sit next to one another, allowing for shared identity between Kubernetes and Cloud Foundry application runtimes.

“I think that what’s most important right now is thinking about the developers. What is it that the developer in the enterprise needs? That developer experience is the most important thing bar none in our minds. Everything else floats from that,” said Childers, adding that “the Cloud Foundry community looks at it as: Developer team, developer experience, and then down.”
