I need to dig into this more, but I’m still trying to understand the use case for the satisfies operator coming to TypeScript 4.9. I get that it’s better than casting via the as operator, but still not sure why I’d need this if things are typed correctly. 🤔
I knew about a $ and some others, but I wasn’t aware of stuff like console.copy(object).
A great read on how CodeSandbox spins up things quickly.
Fun Stuff
I’m dying…

Words of Wisdom for the Week
Tip: It’s powerful for senior engineers to admit when they don’t know something. You can learn from others who do. This normalizes admitting where you have knowledge gaps (but want to learn) and is healthy for teams to see.

VS Code Tip of the Week
Shameless plugs
No streams of my own this week, but I was on the Netlify YouTube channel streaming with my coworkers Prince Wilson and Brittney Postma. We talked about using Netlify forms in Remix!

I started adding short videos for my VS Code Tip of the Week. The first one dropped this week, so if you don’t feel like reading a blog post, you can follow along on my YouTube channel.
