How to type curried functions about types HOT 3 OPEN

@adispring I read through that PR along with the links to the other discussions from there.

I don't have a particularly strong opinion on the keep/no-keep argument. However, the fact of the matter is that placeholders are supported, and therefore need to be typed out

The argument I made above was specifically for the use cases that don't really make sense to keep

R.divide === R.divide() === R.divide(R.__);

But I'm willing to bet that somewhere someone has implemented

const toPercent = R.divide(R.__, 100);

So removing Placeholder support would break their code. Need to keep

from types.

It is also worth noting that there are many places in @types/ramda where there are typing for R.fn(__) that is incorrect. See lt for example

They have there

export function lt(__: Placeholder): (b: number, a: number) => boolean;

This implies that lt(__) is the same as flip(lt), which is incorrect. Therefore, those type definitions will be removes as part of types-ramda overall typing improvements

from types.

Or should we forbid using placeholder when use ramda with ts?
