You can always use Crystal or Dart if you want builtin types. I like Ruby the way it is an trust Matz with his language design decisions.

- cempaka 2y agoYeah I actually did not necessarily mean to dispute Matz's perspective there. I actually think it will benefit programming as a whole if at least one widely used language takes the path of trying to eschew explicit type annotations.
- Alifatisk 2y agoCrystal is the closest alternative to Ruby with types we have, even though they are semantically different and differ in some places. I do not see why you mentioned Dart as an alternative thought, it’s a totally different language.
- petre 2y ago> Dart as an alternative thought, it’s a totally different language Yes it's not Ruby but it has good design, optional type annotations.
