The plague of dynamic type checking

Name: Anonymous 2018-07-09 7:03

I am legitimately unsure why would anyone intentionally use dynamic over static type checking. It's almost as if they don't value safety nor speed.

dependent types
Dependent types live only during compile time in every language that I am aware of supporting them.

generics/polymorphism
How is this in any way worse than dynamic type checking in terms of binary size?

because more options = the lithp way
Sure, but what is the point? After all static type checking is superior in every way.

I think that the issue here is that Typed Racket does not support higher kinds so they end up resulting to dirty hacks like this.
