Language Fermentation. If you're a programmer, I think you're lucky, because this is an exciting time we're living in: there's some powerful intellectual ferment in progress out there. This may be the golden age of programming, as Paul Graham argues, and maybe everything we thought we knew about strong typing is wrong. Herewith a bit of surveyware with a touch of debunking and a practical footnote on Java exception handling. (Warning: geeky.)... [ongoing]

Great thoughts on Strong vs. Dynamic Typing. A really clever use of Java's RuntimeException - to eliminate throwing exceptions throughout your code.
