"Do it in #Rust from the beginning!" - Jon Gjengset

#RustLang #Prototyping #DynamicTyping #StaticTyping

For long there has been debate about #StaticTyping vs #DynamicTyping in #programming. Frequently claims are made that static typing reduces bugs. Purely anecdotally I have not personally found that to be significantly true, and static typing can make coding slower with less flexibility (then again I am a #Tcl guy, and also prefer pure #Javascript to #TypeScript).

Here is a great read that analyses various studies made on the topic: https://danluu.com/empirical-pl/

Hillel Wayne still puts out one of the better software development newsletters, here on the distant dream of what #DynamicTyping could be: https://buttondown.email/hillelwayne/archive/i-am-disappointed-by-dynamic-typing/
