@rin @matrix dymanic typing is always an issue

@opal @matrix a really small amount of bugs in pleroma has been due to dynamic typing, so I will take it over having to write type declarations for all the insane shit AP allows

@rin @matrix implied typing is a thing

@opal @matrix yeah I know, no opinion on that since never tried it. I want to try writing webshit in an implicitly typed language eventually though

@matrix @rin why doesnt comparing int and string result in a compile-time error

@opal @rin

@matrix @rin fucking snakes

@matrix @opal @rin typecasting is a thing. "explicit is better than implicit" is one of python's zen. when comparing always unify type. when taking input or reading from file always specify types too.
if you were to use statically typed lang under the same design you would've gotten an error for not minding your types.
don't blame dynamic typing for bad design :^)
