Please Google the difference between private, public and (crucially) personal property.

I don’t think even most communists think that my guy.

I understand why some hobbyist individuals with small-ish scripts might not see the value, even though I even still disagree there.

The more code and people touching the code, the more value you’ll see.

Hey bud. Can you tell me any other government appointed positions that are lifetime, and can’t be changed by the elected position that appointed them in the first place? I’ll wait.

You just don’t have class consciousness my friend and some of the terminology associated. That’s fair, it’s not always easy and it’s also purposely obscured from you.

It’s easiest to think about people in two classes. Workers and Owners. There’s a bit of gray area, but it’s a very useful distinction. How do you make most of your money; owning property/factories/ip, or selling your labor for a wage?

Profit is not the same thing as “making money”. It’s explicitly the extra money made by the capitalist after material and labor is paid. You pay 3 dollars of labor and 2 dollars of materials to make 6 dollars of revenue, you have made 1 dollar of profit. Arguably that dollar of value was made by the worker, but extracted by the capitalist.

Obviously the workers don’t do it for free, but the capitalist still isn’t making the art. **The workers do. You aren’t a capitalist. You have false solidarity with your masters.

Capitalists own assets for a living and extract labor value in the form of profit. In this case, the intellectual property.

Laborers actually do the work to create the product.

You do not need someone else to own the art for it to be created. You do need labor for it to be created. Hope that clears it up for ya.

Artists and writers brought you this source material. Labor did it.

Well, TS is just JS with strong typing and type annotations. It’s almost the same language, just adding guard-rails and safety checks that the base language doesn’t have.

There’s a bit of fiddling with configuration and using npm, but it’s not much overhead. There’s plenty of tsconfig settings to customize the process for your need, but most the defaults are quite sane.

Entirely depends on your skillset and company. That might be true somewhere, but seems strange.

I do recommend you pick up typescript though. It will forcibly teach you some good habits, expectations, and some more base understanding of what you’re actually doing.
