I've thought that adding the type information is to help less bugs, so I'd be curious to see evidence of the contrary. I use python add my day job, and I hate writing and dealing with typing. I do admit it makes it easier to reaso

I just heard a good podcast on this last night by Ezra Klein (NY Times) with guest C.T Nguyen. Even the utterly nonsense can become a way to simplify the world and hold it all in your head, like a videogame. The attraction comes not from th
