I just listened to this podcast[0], and there's a really great discussion in there about when it's nice to have types, and when it's more trouble than it's really worth.

That's why javascript's flow[1] appeals to me so much, and I'm really interested in core.typed.

Love that podcast. I'll check it out later today, thanks.

About core.typed, just be aware that it comes with its own set of issues[0]. I've been down that road and it wasn't great.
