That’s it. That’s the meme.

      I genuinely wasn’t aware of that. I must be getting javascript confused for almost any other language. I wonder how many times ive !!'d a value to make that work without actually absorbing that into my head now…

        In other languages that shouldn’t be equal either though, right?

        Maybe you meant

        if (2){
console.log("nonzero ints are truthy")
}
else {
console.log("no they're not")
}

        Which would output

        nonzero ints are truthy

        and that would actually work in all languages I know. But that’s different from being equal.
