> Hype: "Static Typing reduces bugs." > Shower: A review of all the available literature (up to 2014), showing that the solid research is inconclusive, while the conclusive research had methodological issues. Which research is supposedly solid? Skimming through the article it seems to me that proper controlled study would be prohibitively expensive and that no controlled study comes close to real world conditions of multiple people developing and maintaining a larger codebase. Conditions, where supposedly (according to anecdotal evidence) static typing would make a notable difference.
