I stopped reading Uncle Bob's articles a few years back, after he started making money by telling programmers they need to be more disciplined to prevent bugs. While he's not exactly wrong, he does dismiss any other solution than testing (such strong type systems). One reason could be that he doesn't make any money out of these solutions. All his blogs and talks seem to send the message: "pay for my content and learn how to be a good programmer by writing tests". Again, not necessarily a bad thing, but there might be other ways than only hand-crafted tests.
