I know that this is a cop out argument, but trust me, we all went through this phase. Eventually you'll see static typing as another tool in the box, that is only helpful and doesn't get in your way.
- jshen 12y agoTrust me, I've been doing this longer than you. Or maybe I'm just smarter, but you'll understand one day. Why be so condescending? Why assume things you have no way of knowing?
- calinet6 12y agoTold you it was a cop-out argument. I'm just telling you what my experience was when encountering this topic, and then my conclusion after revisiting it many times over the course of a dozen years or so.
- jshen 12y agoYou also made major condescending assumptions. Why?
- calinet6 12y agoBecause I'm an asshole? What do you want me to say? I have no illusions about the integrity of my rhetoric—it has none. It was a statement made without much thought based on my experience. It does not require or request your approval.
- jshen 12y agoYou are interacting with another human being. Not caring about the person on the other end of that is something you should question.
- calinet6 12y agoI do care, it's why I made the comment I did in earnest. The lack of a fully formed argument was simply because of my lack of time and typing on a phone. Point taken: I will try to be more kind even to strangers on the internet. You need to let this go.
