> algebraic + pattern matching Functional programmers keep hyping up ADTs like this but the normie programmer doesn't care about ADTs or immutability. What really brought back static types was Golang & typescript, both have local variable type inference, good IDE support & other tooling, and (at least superficially) lighter weight syntax than Java. Normies don't care about algebraic types, pattern matching, immutability, referencial trasparency, type classes. What matters is libraries and tooling.
