I liked this article, but at the end, it seems like the author conflates dynamic and interpreted languages:<p>&#62; Interpreted languages like Ruby, Python, Perl, and yes, even PHP, are now replacing compiled languages...Yes I am aware Ruby, Python, Perl, and PHP can now be compiled, but they will always retain their dynamic heritage.<p>As far as I know, it's only historical accident and ease of programming that has made them correlate.
