If you haven't used a good type system (which has at least algebraic data types and pattern matching), it's hard to realize how many of those bugs might actually be type issues.
- davelnewton 11y agoI'm not claiming that good type systems aren't useful, I'm claiming that the statement "Go is better for long-term development because it's statically typed" is more like FUD than actionable information. I also agree that good type systems can reduce some forms of complexity (while often introducing another, but that's a different discussion).
