Typing: agree to disagree
I guess Carlos and I are going to have to agree to disagree on dynamic typing. My personal experience is that dynamic languages are more productive than languages with static typing. When someone can produce a language where I am more productive than I am in Lisp, I'll be happy to hold that up as the destination. All other factors being equivalent (libraries, IDE), if I had the choice of Java + Generics or Lisp, I'd choose Lisp. If we get to choose libraries and IDE, then give me a Symbolics Lisp Machine over Java+Eclipse any day of the week.
