No one has stopped studying strict types, they are alive and well

  No one said that. Obviously software that can bring down the entire machine is still being written, but by highly skilled specialists. Meanwhile we've grown an army of coding bootcamp programmers churning out all the software that is eating the world (™ Marc Andreessen)

    That's because the value of them churning out that software, however bad, so far has been greater than the alternative (none of it existing). I'd imagine this will hit a breaking point however (maybe it already is) due to hardware not advancing as rapidly. But who knows, maybe we are on the verge of another breakthrough and don't even know it. But once we hit the wall, things will shift.
