I should mention that I've never worked in the corporate world, so my reaction is in that context. I can't talk about the corporate side of things since I've never experienced it.

Also yes static typing in Java does look pretty cumbersome. Personally I'm hoping that Rust takes off, I've enjoyed playing about with it over the last couple of weeks, although it has made me less happy using the more dynamic languages I normally use to do real work.
