Am I the only one who feels like dynamically typed #programming languages are becoming obsolete? Type systems are more expressive and type inference is more ergonomic, so there seems to be few arguments in favor of weaker typing.
@icefox the benefit of dynamic typing today comes from the all-around flexibility - reflection, serialization, polymorphic behavior.
It's too much power for a reusable module but great for glue and prototype code.
