David Blass, - ArkType, better runtime type validation

This week we talk to David Blass, the creator of ArkType, a runtime validation library for TypeScript. ArkType goes against the mold of other TypeScript validation libraries by using a syntax that is as close to native TypeScript as possible. It's packed with interesting features and has made David a TypeScript performance expert.
