A comment on Nil in Go is typed in theory and sort of untyped in practice. Parent comment

However typescript says:

  This condition will always return 'false' since the types 'never[]' and 'boolean' have no overlap.
...for `[] == ![]`. Which is ironic because it does return true, not false. However at least it flags an error!

I wonder how much of weirdness is wiped out by linters/ts/etc.
