It's not about dumb code. Actually both C++ and Scala can allow you unbelievably clever code which is also super difficult to understand by somebody uninvolved.

- jjnoakes 10y agoBeing too clever or too terse is possible in any language though. It is an education and experience problem, not a language problem. Some languages may be slightly worse than others, but the root cause (and solution) is the same across the board.
