As someone who dislikes clutter, in my experience it's just easier to read and write with these languages: Perl, PHP, Ruby, Python, Javascript, Smalltalk.

If you dare leave the safety of a compiler you'll find that Sublime Merge can still save you when rewriting a whole part of an app. That and manual testing (because automatic testing is also clutter).

If you think it's more professional to have a compiler I'd like to agree but then why did I run into a PHP job when looking for a Typescript one? Not an uncommon unfolding of events.
