How can my JSON response have any concept of Type? If I return a number and you treat it is a string, my API doesn’t have any concept of that. Now in the actual spec of the API I could say that specific URI will return an int, but it’s up to your side to classify the array of bits as an int instead of a str.

Enlightenment is realizing that variables don’t have nor need a type, they are all just arrays of bits.

Do you think that the average person is a killer but the only thing that stops them are the tools they have available?
