Some of the salt might come from experiences using dynamically typed languages that later had some amount of stronger typing added on.
No matter how well that's done, it creates friction somewhere in the process interacting with existing code.
That is, I can agree that an inherently strongly typed language has benefits, while also being skeptical about bolted on additions.
- c54 4y agoMakes sense. People have been burned. Probably there are lots of people who think about typescript environment setup and source maps when they think about typing, or who think about python's "isinstance(str, foo)". Or who think that it's overly complicated arcane nonsense with weird terminology (lookin at haskell). Or that types specifically refer to borrow checker woes in rust.
