You absolutely do not need a computer telling you what types you can put in a collection. Put an assert, write some unit tests, if you aren't sure where data sources come from and can't write a one-line comment.
Dynamic typing makes you fast, it's empowering. Try it and quit being so scared.
Strong typing is for weak minds.

Hate to be a pedantic nerd but seeing as the subject is coding
I think you mean static typing, not strong typing
How is dynamic typinf faster? Is typing
num = 1instead ofint num = 1really that much faster?It's not just the physical typing
It's the fact that you can be extremely flexible with data structures and variables
E.g. you can have a list of strings and ints in Python but not java
This is why union types are great (also sum types are similar I think, never used those)
