Maybe worth merging this with the new release thread? https://lobste.rs/s/ea6dik/typst_0_14_now_accessible
The content of the two posts are totally separate, I don't think they share anything beyond talking about Typst.
My post (Typst as a Language) is about Typst as viewed as a programming language: functions, mutable value semantics, set and show rules. "Typst 0.14" is about new features: accessibility(!), html export, character-level justification. Those features didn't exist when I wrote my post, and fall outside of its scope regardless (none of them touch the programming language in Typst).
Minor errata: python has fix sized arrays, they are called tuples.
