How has dynamic typing been abandoned? What is Javascript? what is Python? What is Ruby?
The meta object protocol is alive and well in Python, Ruby, and to a lesser extent lua with metatables.
I don't see the point in exaggeration.
- otabdeveloper1 10y ago> How has dynamic typing been abandoned? What is Javascript? what is Python? What is Ruby? Languages that are in the process of tacking on static typing features in a bid to stay relevant. Most serious Javascript programmers are now moving to Typescript, Python has PEP-484, etc.
- hota_mazi 10y agoNobody would consider starting a large project with Python or Ruby these days. Javascript will be the last mainstream dynamically typed language, and while it's going to be around for a while, even it is slowly being replaced by statically typed versions of itself (Typescript, Dart). The trend is crystal clear for anyone who's been paying attention to the field for the past decade. There's simply no longer any good reason to use a dynamically typed language.
