Yeah I usually love Python but right now I'm working on a paid project where I need to deal with tasks that are critical to mostly work on first try. Now, if it would be a different matter if my code was just completely idiotic and still worked but Python doesn't error even when there is obvious typo that any statically compiled language could've picked up on a breeze at compile time.

I am scared to even implement a better logging system in my program because sometimes I forget to sanitize the arguments and my program fucking crashes at runtime because I added a new fucking logging statement.

I so fucking wish I had static type checking right now. The libraries I am using doesn't have types (via annotations) so unless I spend days fixing their shit, I will have to continue with these shitty runtime crashes for the shittiest small mistakes. I also can't trust these annotations because even if they are "wrong" their code coul perfectly work fine and they could even ship the wrong types. I would have the burden of dealing with their shitty annotations if that happens.
