An interesting take on why dynamically typed languages became so popular and why staticly typed languages are making a comeback.

    Great talk and I completely agree with him. Static typing has a lot of benefits but the old style use cases had a lot of extra overhead. As languages have matured, that overhead has come down a lot and so it’s not surprising that they have gained back traction recently.
