scala is dead last. btw his script is 167 lines of clean well written python. i can rewrite that in 16 lines of scala using http4s and cats or whatever dsl is hot these days in scalaland. fwiw, probably that’s why scala is dead last :)
- incrudible 4y agoThe list of languages alone is more than 16 lines. So, unless you were going to write code that's hard to read and annoying to modify, you're going to need more than 16 lines. Given that you're a Scala programmer, that's probably indeed what you would set out to do. Fwiw, that's probably why Scala is dead last.
- melling 4y agoWhat happened to Scala? It used to have quite a following. Scala 3 was supposed to be a major improvement. No resurgence in enthusiasm after it shipped?

- BoxOfRain 4y agoI've recently applied to a Scala job that was specifically advertised to Java and Kotlin devs because it's hard to hire a Scala dev. I hope I get the role, I'm a sucker for an interesting programming language.
