Although I still do it because, you know, you just are so used to it, and there's no js compiler that argues with it

auto semi colon injection will screw you sometimes. for example

var hey = "hello"
[1,2,3].forEach((x)=> console.log(x) )

it's invalid. because it'll become
var hey = "hello"[1,2,3].forEach((x)=> console.log(x) )

I feel like JS should only be used for short term prototyping . Who would ever risk JS for a serious development when languages like Typescript or Elm are available for free.

All I have is a black heartless, humourless ball of "nope" in response to that.

I hope you were being sarcastic...
