100% agree. Same with :any in typescript. When it comes to bugs... I tend to think that a good configured linter is more important than the degree of the type system. It’s nice to have a strong type system but people forget that a lot of programmers are bad and a good type system won’t change that fact.

Having spent way too much years in java I’d have to say that the build systems are really the weakest part of java. We have „maven“ (wtf) and „gradle“ (powerful but yikes) oh and “ant” (dead now)
Wrt gradle: While it’s super easy to get started, any slight modification is a major pain.
Note to other tooling guys for other languages:
- I don’t want to write in a new language just for my build system
- I don’t want freaking xml hell like maven
And don’t get me even started with Maven as a package manager. But to be honest... it’s at least better than NPM :-)
