I think he is referring to situation when compiler both catches errors at compile-time and is fast. After all the validation part happening in the fronted is rarely the most resource consuming thing that compiler does.


And I think rapsey is referring to the fact that a compiler with a more powerful type system allows you to encode more logic in your types. This, in turn, means it will catch more errors at compile time at the cost of longer compile times.


Yes, but I think the OP referring to Go as he dont want one or the other. He Wants both! And Go being near no-compiling time meant that best of both world ( From his perspective )
