Changing the type on a value is an anti-pattern, in my opinion. It's not obnoxious to be explicit in your variable names.

That implies that Hungarian notation is not obnoxious? Sure, that's a fine opinion to have, but I guarantee it is an exceedingly rare one.

If you're writing in a language without strong type checking, Hungarian notation makes sense.
