I am tired of Armin's opinions and hot takes. I appreciate the work he has done but we are changing (maturing?) as a community. We have learned that there is a real cost to dynamic languages and there is not always a benefit to them.
To people that like what they see in this post please try Go if you are on a team. TypeScripts attracts typing astronauts that can and will turn a codebase into and unmaintainable mess just the same as untyped Python.
Of course you might not value team velocity over your own velocity and that, is indeed, a different conversation.
I have said for years: Go makes teams effective the same way Python makes individual devs effective.
