 ## Type guards
 
 When using `is` together with TypeScript, [type guards](http://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/advanced-types.html#type-guards-and-differentiating-types) are being used extensively to infer the correct type inside if-else statements.

 ## Type assertions
 
-The type guards are also available as [typescript assertions](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/release-notes/typescript-3-7.html#assertion-functions), which throw an error for unexpected types. It is a convenient one-line version of the often repetitive "if-not-expected-type-throw" pattern.
