Hmm I code a lot in vim without any plugins (I just have syntax highlighting). It has never really been a problem for me (say in C++, Rust or Kotlin): I guess I'm training my memory a bit more?

I'll admit, once in a while I write something like `let a: Int = <the_var_which_type_I_dont_know>` and compile, such that the compiler says something like "expected an Int, got a HashMap<String, Int>". But pretty rarely.

So yeah, I kind of like type inference.
