Wow, never heard about Sorbet before, looks good! I was a Ruby developer around ten years ago, and never stopped liking the language. I have moved into functional programming since, with strong types like Haskell, and do appreciate compile time type checking nowadays. Sorbet seems like a nice compromise here though!

I've also noticed that a strong type system and things like immutability have worked tremendously well for minimizing the amount bugs. They can't necessarily help with business rules but a compiler can definitely clear out all the "stupid" bugs.

It's such a great book, both hilarious and sad at times. I also went to eBay to search for a copy before realizing I already own the book.
