A comment on Bad TypeScript Habits.

I think the code sample after `Use the new ?? operator, or, even better, define the fallback right at the parameter level.` is not correct, it stops after new Date without any mention of ??

edit: read too fast :facepalm:

Yeah, the example just shows the "even better" option: it gives a default value for the date parameter.

It's defined at the parameter level, using function parameter defaults

It uses a fallback at parameter level instead of the ?? operator.

Yes, someone found the typo, send it to me via Twitter, and I fixed it. This is also where I know from that the article is on Hacker News :D
