OMG, it works! Simply changing the interface from method shorthand syntax to object property syntax makes the desired squigglies appear!

@mattpocock.com in your capacity as typescript whisperer, have you blogged about "function parameter bivariance"? I'd be curious if you have practical advice how to avoid the problem I describe in this gist gist.github.com/pesterhazy/4...

I could use a nice trip to somewhere in Europe or the UK.

I'd like to sponsor my trip by doing useful work with your company. I have a lot of skill and experience in software delivery, code craft, and team management.

Consider contracting me for a few days. I would love to help.

Exciting. Btw I noticed on iOS Chrome, the back button seems borked

Oftentimes a library will do a lot more than what you need, creating accidental complexity. Expert teams recognize this

True it depends. The answer may be different depending on, among other things, the team's skill level

Talking about an app, not a lib

Today should a node project use ESM (rather than commonjs) and {"type": "module"}?

Just spent half a day fighting with node's module resolution and --experimental-strip-types

Zod v4 is marketed as having 20x fewer instantiations of tsc...

While it's great to see progress, this news makes me hesitant to use it. Why was it doing so much in the first place? All that type-level complexity must have a cost
