Java is weakly typed in its generics, despite being statically typed. I’m sure there are more examples.
It's weak in many areas, such as, oh, that you can implicitly convert an out-of-range floating point value to an integer type and get undefined behavior.
Linkage in C is not type safe. An extern int x declaration in one translation unit can be matched with an extern double x = 0.0 definition in another. Linkers for c typically accept that without a diagnotic: the program links.
