Ruby really isn't becoming static though. Most code used by Rubyists (e.g Rails apps) is likely to remain dynamic.

- cactus2093 6y agoYeah, I can't really tell if the overall community will adopt it or not, but you may well be right. Last time I commented something about ruby not having static typing I got downvoted by people claiming Sorbet is already used heavily in production. But either way if I'm switching off of ruby, I don't really want to go to something else that doesn't have static typing.
- joelbluminator 6y agoA few huge companies like Stripe use Sorbet. Thats really not a good representation of Ruby users though. I guess youre right, for dynamicism Ruby is awesome but if you need types just switch to a true typed language.
