@typescript-eslint/no-unsafe-unary-minus
Require the operand of unary - to be a number or a bigint
-value converts value to a number first. For a string that isn't numeric, an object, or an array with several items, the result is NaN. TypeScript accepts it without an error.
A union is reported if any of its members isn't a number or a bigint. any isn't reported.
bun lint --type-aware turns this rule on in TypeScript files.
Configure
Off by default. This rule needs types, so turning it on makes bun lint type check your code first.
