Editorial note

This ends up exerting a hell of a darwinian pressure on them, where the libraries that survive are complete-enough-to-be-useful but have very tight external APIs. The statically typed languages, with their naval-helicopter-whop-whop-whop-ing IDEs armed to the hilt with code completion, navigation, code-gen and thermo-nuclear refactoring tools, do not put nearly as much pressure on the API designer to keep the external interface tight, and thus you get the baroque J2EE-style sh*t shows. So, while I don't view IDEs as a language smell, I do think that they have, indirectly, contributed to the observable sanity-gap between the libraries for dynamic and static languages.
