One trend with complicated languages is poor scalability although. They don’t compile fast , tend to have slow iteration speeds and don’t scale with large teams or codebases well. You see this with c++ , rust, haskell, scala and swift.
- adwn 5y agoI'm curious to hear where you've seen Rust not scaling to large teams or codebases?
- travv0 5y agoI'd also be interested in a Haskell example.
- JoelMcCracken 5y agoGenerally this problem is because someone went crazy with template haskell or generics
- travv0 5y agoWhat problem? I'm looking for an example of where poor scalability has been a problem in a Haskell codebase.
- novok 5y agoGenerate 1 million lines of stupid repetitive code that varies slightly with a 100 line script and you'll see it happen quickly. Same issues with swift and even kotlin to some level. I don't have specific experience but I've run into it with other people who use both languages. My personal experience is swift. If 1 million lines sound crazy to you, you just need 200 engineers working on one project for a year or two.
