By all accounts, TypeScript has been a big success for Microsoft. I've seen loads of people sparkle with joy from dousing JavaScript with explicit types that can be checked by a compiler. But I've never been a fan. Not after giving it five minutes, not after giving it five years. So it's with great pleasure that I can announce we're dropping TypeScript from the next big release of Turbo 8.

There's likely a lot of reasons one wouldn't want to work with DHH. It's unfortunate because he is clearly really brilliant but seemingly fails to realize that a huge amount of software engineering involves working together with other people, many of whom aren't that brilliant.
