🚨 TypeScript just got 10× faster! The TypeScript compiler has been ported to Go and we had Anders Hejlsberg and Daniel Rosenwasser on to announce it and break it all down! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlGz...

I thought you'd bring Tony Hawk into your podcast and announce a syntax themed THPS skate park. But this one is good as well.

10x faster... by not being JavaScript. Anyone that's using JS at build time, or server-side, or any places that JS just isn't optimised for, should really take note of Anders' explanation of why Go is so much faster.

Is faster always better? As we hurry to make TypeScript quicker using Go, we might be missing the core value of simplicity. Can the complexities buried in achieving more speed make coding easier? How will easy comprehension and implementation stack up in this race for speed? …

It's a bit of a shame they couldn't make a subset TypeScript -> WASM/native compiler just for TSC purposes. Having TypeScript written in another language than TypeScript is still a reminder that will JS ever get threading etc. support? Maybe not, but they could've built V8 extensions just for TSC.
