You wish we went back to bind and apply? And not being able to trace logic, state, and DOM through a labyrinth of Backbone views? We have come so far

How is static typing "mental laziness"?

The article says bind as a negative point - I perefer the new non-bound class method syntax:

``` private handleClick = (event) => {} ```

By "mental lazyness" I mean that people (as in people I have met with) piss on javascript and praise typescript and in the process they never bother to learn about javascript.

I do like vue, react, angular of course, but I don't think that you become a frontend developer from one day to the next and keep saying that typescript is _exactly_ like java (or dotnet).

So you involved yourself in a faction war because of... some things some interviewers said? Please, spare us next time.
