Lol. Should probably have been proofread maybe?

Almost all features of an interface are available in type, the key distinction is that a type cannot be re-opened to add new properties vs an interface which is always extendable
interfaces can get new properties vie extends. types are locked down and requiring a funcky intersections &{ } syntax
call it and see what happens. This kind of behavior makes it hard to predict what the code will do before it runs, which means it’s harder to know what your code is going to do while you’re writing it. Seen in this way, a type is the concept of describing which values can be passed to fn and which will crash. JavaScript only truly provides dynamic typing - running the code to see what happens.

The main benefit of TypeScript is that it can highlight unexpected behavior in your code, lowering the chance of bugs.
Lowering the chances of bugs ≠ bug-free code. Typescript is a tool to help you write better code
upskilling and opportunity creation.
An equitable trend of upskilling and training seems to be pervasive in these examples. You can't hire everyone for top roles, but you can make opportunities to fill in skills gaps available to everyone.
Remember, equity is not giving everyone the same opportunities but knowing that not all of us start from the same point.
Men account for 87% of software professionals in the USA alone, while only 19.3% of software experts are women
The percentage of women software engineers in the world is around 27.5%. That is way less than the percentage of men (72.5%) working in the tech industry. The data shows there's an enormous gender gap in this field across the globe.
equity recognizes that every person has a different background and starting point
Diversity as a term stands for the differences that exist among all individuals in a society and then workplaces and other smaller settings. These differences are based on race, religion, ethnicity, age, nationality, political perspectives, and religious commitments. They also include distinct views, values, and ideas. A diverse workspace includes people with varying characteristics and beliefs in an equal and respective manner. Many leaders tend to think that implementing diversity in their company is a challenging task. However, they fail to understand that the benefits are well worth the effort.
Diversity celebrates uniqueness, stories, perspectives, histories, etc...
Equity recognizes that every person has different starting point- some of us start with advantages, others may have started with disadvantages
Inclusiveness... is a result of Diversity + Equity. When the effort is made to celebrate our special sauce AND make room at the tables we sit at, THEN we've got an inclusive workplace
Either end of the spectrum is either tokenization or erasure.

skin color is still a factor
This is a rather shallow way of looking at it. You could say it's light on the equity... Skin color might be a first-glance thing, but... we need to look at a few things beyond that.... One example, did you know that restrictive convenants were designed by banks to keep non-whites poor? An equity-lens analysis would recognizes that white populations were favored (one could say privileged) over any other groups to own property. And so... the banks restricted equityy
Many organizations focus on adding diverse talent to the C-suite, within a particular discipline such as IT, or for a certain demographic such as women or entry-level talent, Graves said. That targeted approach misses the mark. Instead, that representation needs to be balanced and distributed across the organization as a whole.
Kinda disagree here. If your customers can't see their students, in your C-Suite, then we're only going to work harder and not smarter.
That being said, if your C-Suite isn't changing, then who needs to be the representation your customers and talent need to see?
The Consolidate.js library follows this convention by mapping all of the popular Node.js template engines, and therefore works seamlessly within Express.
Some Express template engines are already compliant. For those that aren't, you can use ConsolidateJS to get them to work.
