Actually teams find it takes far less time to get to market once everyone is past the learning curve. Code and PR reviews take less time, for example, because the compiler carries some of that weight.

I think it would be more accurate to say: "Building your UI with JS-heavy logic rather than static HTML shifts some workload from the browser’s optimized C++ rendering engine to the JS engine, which _might_ introduce overhead depending on use case."

Sometimes, sure. But usually, I just take it as it comes and tell myself they’re not the same beast. If I’m messing with Go, it’s probably because I’m enjoying a slick package—worth the usability hit. The Charm.sh crew’s packages are a blast, even if I still lean on Rust for the same stuff.

I suppose it would be Go. It's fun to write, easy to learn, and I can be super productive with it.

I do love all those. Can’t wait to see what comes out of the investment in the compiler. 👍🏽

CLIs or a simple web server are always a good start. Have fun!

Me too! I guess I haven’t come across the need for anything more than newtypes but I can see where refinement types would be cool to have.

Need separation? Not necessarily. Could approach it both ways with tradeoffs too numerous for a 🦋 post.
Small fixed set of units - Newtypes FTW
Large or extensible set of units - you’d wish for a generic approach with a unit type param the blog asks about.

At least you’re not hiding your red flags. 🚩🫠
