I support you ReflectedImage - seems like these people just don't know how great dynamic languages can be! My team has actually seen a 30x decrease in bugs, and a 50x increase in productivity ever since switching to Python.
Well a lot of people are claiming that static typing reduces bugs compared to dynamic typing, but I haven't seen from them a shred of evidence of this.
When I go looking for myself what I found was studies saying that dynamic typing reduces development time by 2.5x and bugs per software feature by 2.5x.
So perhaps one of these people claiming that static typing reduces bugs over dynamic typing, could provide the slightest bit of evidence to backup their claims?
Is that too much to ask @spoils19?
But I'm pretty sure they will just find the exact same figures as me.
