alt Hacker NewsYou are going to have to give more support for those assertions. I write Python every day, and never would I call it a good candidate for the clankers. Pretty much any dynamic language would be ruled out, as there is too much implicit logic which makes it harder to understand what is happening.

What's better for this, Go? That's the least verbose static one, and it's still a lot more verbose without helping you understand any better what it's doing. It's just faster. That's the real benefit of static types.
Python with a strict linter and type checker (eg ruff with the right lints on and ty with its stricter settings, or strict pyright if performance isn't too bad) works very well. Most of Python strengths (concise, large ecosystem, well represented in the LLM training data) while having good static analysis.
