I got fed up with up with Python and switched to F#. My main issue was the lack of static typing made testing and debugging a major timesink and headache.

It's early days but so far F# it ticks all my boxes and I'm finding it an extremely nice language to write in. It is just as terse as Python (due to type inference) but statically typed, and there is a great plugin Ionide for VSCode which makes for a really polished development environment.

Plan is to use Microsoft's CNTK for ML/DL stuff.

For anyone frustrated with Python's duck typing, I highly recommend you check out F#.
