Compilation time is still a problem though it is not as big of a deal to me personally. Complexity or learning the language is still the biggest issue I see. T

  > Complexity or learning the language is still the biggest issue I see. That has not changed in 5 years. That's not true. Most things are them same or easier than on Java8. If you don't lear Lambda's on Java8 you are missing everything. And most things in Scala's are like Lambda map/foreach all over the place. and generators making things easier to read and easier to understand. Java8 doesn't have this future you end up writing flatmap(data -> return flatmap .. return flatmap return flatmpap) that's awkward. On scala if you don't use the hard things the language is way easier than the most languages outside of the jvm ecosystem.
