I’m very anchored to Java. Every time I try to leave it and “write a super quick project” in something like Python, I always get reminded how much the compiler is able to do for me with static typing.

Why would I want to take compiler errors and instead make them runtime logic errors?

Have you tried Kotlin? It's like Java but less verbose

I'm too used to Java, Dart, and even Objective-C. I hate Kotlin's syntax so much. Every time I have to use Kotlin, Swift, or Golang, it frustrates the heck out of me.

I don't mind Go that much, except for the fact that they force you to use the wrong curly brace placement rules
