I think some of the modern languages handle this pretty well. Rust has algebraic data types thanks to its brilliant use of enums. Go has a similar type system. Taking the
elapsedTime
example from the post, for solving this duration related problem, a Rust programmer would useDuration::from_millis(millis)
orDuration::from_secs(secs)
and forget about the unit. It's a duration, that's what you wanna care about.
