I knew exactly how handy that was the first time I saw it.
- usrusr 7y agoEven after having publicly sung its praise a part of me still considers that feature outrageously bad taste. There could be a nicely orthogonal language feature instead, with universal applicability for good knows what, instead of this highly pragmatic superficial syntax hack! I think it's the part of me that loves Scala. (I do, but I'm also installing Flutter SDK while writing these lines)
- SlowRobotAhead 7y agoMaybe it’s a syntax hack. But, man, sometimes you just need to get a thing done and... it works. When you see it, it makes sense and if it makes sense and works... I don’t really care how “pure” it is.
