      @avibryant @patrickc I missed that line. In that case: kudos to the author of that post.

      @Eigenvariable @patrickc I don't buy that argument in Scala's case, though. The design space is so huge and varied that it's paralyzing.

      @avibryant @Eigenvariable @patrickc I'll take the other side of "the age of dynamic languages is over" bet any day of the week.

      @mattknox @avibryant @patrickc Sadly, I agree with you. It's better read as "gee, I wish the age of dynamic languages would start waning."

      @Eigenvariable @avibryant @patrickc I get that you like types, but surely you want more people programming?

      @Eigenvariable @avibryant @patrickc and that most beginners are not category theorists? ;)

      @mattknox @avibryant @patrickc This is a straw man. Understanding category theory isn't particularly useful for understanding types.

      @Eigenvariable @avibryant @patrickc category theory was a ;). But all the beginner-friendly languages I know of are dynamic.

      @mattknox @Eigenvariable @patrickc you can't drag a (round) numeric value into a (diamond?)-shaped boolean hole in an if/else clause.
