strictly typed languages like java are harder to write , but easier to work with (and document ) since one can know what is what , and what a method expects. It's easy to write a hash in JS but harder to understand what parameters are expected when you are using a library that passes hashes as parameters. That's why i prefer languages with type inference rather than dynamic typing. You can be explicit when you need to and lazy when you want to. (Excuse my french)
