Lack of type checking was a hot thing for a while. It made you "move faster". It was actually sold as an advantage. Until we realized that after moving faster you grind to a halt because now you have a massive codebase, with hundreds or thousands of files, and everything takes forever, and every change requires multiple rounds of testing. I believe it really has to do with the size and complexity of modern projects. With a half-decent IDE you could sort of used non-type-checked Python in 2012, but times have changed, and now we are talking about statically checking Python and Ruby. And Javascript, of course, now has it in form of TypeScript. |
