When I worked on OpenStack for a few years, 80% of the bugs I fixed were type errors that could have been prevented by Python being staticly typed.
Yeah strong disagree with this meme. 15 years into my career and everything gets a data type.
The only engineers I know who still don't like strong types are engineers who haven't lost a weekend due to a stupid type issue. Once you have one or a few of those, you start to like types again.
I remember a javascript library where the was a function that returned, according to the documentation, "a color". Did it return an object with 3 fields? Were those fields RGB or some other color scheme? Is it a string encoding a color? What format is that string? None of these questions could be answered without just running the code, and analyzing the object you got back.
{ r, g, b}, hex code, rgb encoded in some stupid format, types are just helpful. I don't know why people don't like them. 30 seconds of creating a class for your type saves you hours of debugging later
This describes literally every python contract job I've ever had.
ASM doesn't care about your variable types, because it doesn't care about your variables. What's a variable, anyway? There is only address space.

Nah I think this is fine for all of the software engineers working on 1-person projects at the place they intend to stay the rest of their career.
the hell of their own creation
And that's why I don't use smart pointers.
Well...
I actually did make a logical flow diagram describing all conditions for pointer deletion. They just don't care to read it.
pydantic goes brrrrr!
As long as your byte consists of 8 bits.
Like any newb, the nuance is lost.
Data types don’t matter, the interface matters.
Elixir and Clojure are awesome languages and don't need no types. Elixir is getting them though, so you weird static type absolutists can finally look at it soon. I even use Haskell and OCaml and Rust which has stricter types than the languages y'all write in and I never complain about the lack of types in languages.
I'm the guy on the right, typescript devs are in the middle

This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
