One of my fav Python writeups. I love Python and luckily I get to dictate how it's being written in my job, so I'm forcing types down the through of my colleagues. Saved a bunch of debugging time, so I can waste more time on Lemmy while still getting paid. Good shit

Type hints are cool. Runtime enforced type hints are cooler.

Oh my gosh... This project and its readme are amazing. I gotta try this at work tomorrow, I hope my co-workers can bear with me.

Edit: I just found the release notes... I love it

Thanks for this. I might start to use this. This would allow me to add typing class or function at a time and slowly work my way back.

I fully agree with the post. Except for a fast prototyping or a short personal script where it could be not necessary, type hint is a must. The subject is not only to guarantee that the program now runs without errors, but it will be still working right in the future too, even after a developer (either the original or other) make changes to the code.
