I support abandoning dynamic typing.
- pdimitar 3y agoSame. The dynamic typing helps with prototyping but all MBAs have consistently proven they are NOT willing to have the prototype rewritten in something better later.
- PartiallyTyped 3y agoI found that it is better to ask for forgiveness than permission.
- pdimitar 3y agoSame, by the way. I am ashamed that I didn't do it more often over the course of a 22-year long career. I really should change that.
- 8n4vidtmkvmk 3y agoI just launched 2 experiments to production this week without going through the launch approval process. I'm such a rebel.
- Tarq0n 3y agoI don't think static typing is the right way to go for every kind of application (imagine doing data analysis without dynamic typing), but every dynamic programming language should ideally support progressively adding types to a codebase.
