I FUCKING HATE DYNAMIC TYPING

Name: Anonymous 2014-07-07 19:07

I've spent hours trying to figure out what's wrong and it was because this shit silently accepted a vector in place of a scalar. FUUUUCK FUCKETY FUUUUCK. Static typing should be everywhere, even in math software, even in fucking Python, I want ALL programming to always be strictly and statically typed. Fucking idiots, ARRGGH.

But in Lisp, macros aren't necessarily expanded at compile time, so how can you guarantee that the resulting code is well typed? There doesn't even need to be a compile time, and thanks to reader macros, both read time and run time are blurred, too. Static typing won't cut it for a fullblood Lisp.
