[al_be_back]

dynamically-typed languages were typically created for scripting tasks - but ended up going viral (in part due to d-typing), the community stretched the language to its limits and pushed it into markets it wasn't designed/thought for (embedded python, server-side js, distributed teams, dev outsourcing etc).

personally i like the dev-sidecar approach to typing that Python and JS (via TS) have taken to mitigate the issue.
