I guess the site is having HN traffic issues? Deployment takes a very long time and then always fails.

We prototype everything in a higher level language first and then 'translate it' (manually) to something that fits the production platform. For instance, for our current iteration of our product, we created a first 'visual pr

Despite your lame exit sentence, you have a point. Over here we could learn from that however we have not so far; people refuse to do crap jobs and hire foreigners to do them. Where I live, people from Morocco do all the crap work. Locals r

Telegraaf is a (underbelly) tabloid and they paid for that poll (it says in the header). Can you show the questions and the answers instead of the Telegraaf interpretation? As that means nothing at all. No mention of cbs by the way; it was

We sold our 'nhs' (ziekenfonds) in the 80s, everything went downhill from there. Rich elderly have no problems like this.

Why would they? What is a shitstorm anyway? Most people don't really care about the company... They care about feeding their family and shitstorms are only shit if you care right?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, however we were not talking about verboseness vs terseness though. You can make anything terse with stringy types and you indeed seem to favour that, however, this was about how types change readability

Why would they be in the global namespace? They would be in imported namespaces (something\Http for instance). That's rather normal. And yes, now you have to make sure you are passing the proper and valid types, which is obviously the

Got that, but was triggered by ‘algorithmic structure’; that sounds a tad ‘over the top’ when you then come with some basic web request. However, I would not call your example particularly well typed. Array is still basically untyped. When
