The only rant you’ll ever need as a Software Engineer!

"The older I get, the more I appreciate dynamic languages" - Finally, someone said it.

In my earlier years, I used to love C++, Go, Rust and even TypeScript over JavaScript in the worst case. Python and JS were heresy for me.

Now I love Python and JavaScript and I feel they're much better for most use-cases and atleast the first 75%ile of scaling requirements.

Ain't nobody got time for dealing with static types once you're older. With more experience, you begin understanding the shapes/types of all commonly used constructs in dynamic languages anyway.

I've never worked at FAANG so I don't know what I'm missing. But I've hired (and not hired) engineers from FAANGs and they don't know what they're doing either.

Itna bhi sach nahi bolna tha lol

Thank you for sharing this post!
