a programming language (PL) cannot be the worst PL if it is the sublanguage of another PL
uhh I was thinking of C/C++ here, but the other example of Javascript/Typescript is probably enough to dissuade me from this axiom
@niplav both examples seem to align with the axiom to me.
@WomanCorn huh. I think I like TypeScript 🤷
(am I confusing myself? valid C programs⊂valid C++ programs, valid JavaScript programs⊂valid TypeScript programs, right?)
@niplav oh. I'm underwhelmed by Typescript, so that would be the difference.
a Schelling point for those who seek one
