JUXT Cast S5E13 - Static vs Dynamic Typing - with Jake Howard

In this episode, JUXT’s CEO Jon Pither, CTO Malcolm Sparks, and Head of Delivery Joe Littlejohn, are joined by guest Software Engineer Jake Howard to engage in a thoughtful discussion on the enduring static vs dynamic typing debate. While static typing has long been a staple in programming, the conversation leans toward the growing appeal of dynamic typing in modern software practices.

The team explores how dynamic typing allows for quicker iteration, greater flexibility, and better adaptation to shifting project demands. They also take time to weigh the structure and reliability that static typing provides, making for a balanced look at both approaches.
