I'm not defending every point the author made, but some sure seem right to me. Especially point #2: that we will get more exotic computing hardware.
As for #28, I can easily imagine what the author means. Think the movie Her. You don't have to type out "from typing import Option" over and over again. You just say to the computer: "Let's add types to the classes in module orders.py" and it comes back with "Able to add typing to 98% of variables automatically, but SpecialOrdersController has complex inheritance and I wasn't able to ..." and you go from there.
Anyway, don't get too huffy and stuffy with these types of things. It's an exploration of ideas not a PhD defence.
"Moore's law is the observation that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit (IC) doubles about every two years."
Unless you're talking about Dennard scaling, which started breaking down in 2006 according to Wikipedia:
