Here's the link to the RubyKaigi 2019 slides:
<https://sorbet.run/talks/RubyKaigi2019/#/>
This does not run for me, though. Video is "coming soon"[1].

sorbet is a RubyGem. The tweet says it is going to be part of Ruby's
stdlib, which is an information I cannot find on sorbet.org. But I
think I have to bear with Twitter being a primary news source
nowadays. I would have appreciated it if someone involved could have
announced it on this mailing list (RubyTalk still is the largest online
Ruby community, isn't it?) or on ruby-lang.org. At least a ticket on the
tracker would have been nice, but there's nothing to be found if you
search it for "sorbet"[2].

Given the example on sorbet.org, I second these thoughts. But I'm only a
hobby programmer anyway.
