nice, had to scroll up quite a bit 😄

I also disagree with the article, and fixing the whole chain if something changes in future like null-able to !null or other way around should be refactor able automatically by ide (hopefully) most of the time. Personally i am looking forward to have more first class support from languages for dependency injection and more stuff. Removing the need of libraries like dagger and kodein etc.

Saying languages shouldn’t become safer is kind of denying reality. Everything around us gets safer every day - thanks automation and strictness. Our brains are way more error-prone than computers. “Test everything” is not a solution because of humans involved in the process, which can easily miss anything.

Of course, we will write the missing test after the bug is found in production.

I will ask in #test channel

Hi @bodiam, I believe that it’s more an impression, there were just several explanation articles lately because of recent release of long-waited

all-open

compiler plugin

@bodiam how to design so that the issue never arises would be a good topic 🙂

We’ve not needed non-final classes yet in our projects
