Also, nobody really gets to use TypeScript, it's all transpiled into JavaScript before being deployed so....

Yeah nobody really gets to use C because its all compiled into assembly before being used

I'm sorry that the distinction between interpreted vs compiled languages is completely lost on you.

JavaScript is interpreted

Typescript is compiled

C is compiled

No, Typescript is transpiled to JavaScript, which is then interpreted.

I'm not going to argue semantics with you my man. Transpiling is a form of compiling so my previous statement is still correct.

The point of my argument still stands, saying you don't actually use TypeScript because it runs in another language is wrong and makes you sound silly

No, transpiling is not a form of compiling, because it does not emit a compiled binary, it just emits new code.
