I use Scala for "mostly functional" programming, and it works very well. Sorry, Erik, you are just not where it's at anymore.

- hbogert 12y agoHappens to be that Scala is Erik's favorite as well. I must say that the article has a completely different tone than when you'd talk to him personally, though he likes to talk in extremes and only afterwards talks about what is practical yet not in a diminished importance kind of way. I interpret the article just as a big indicator to a fundamental problem how we can express stuff in language and their accompanying downsides.
- emsy 12y agoTalking in extremes is practical, if you want to be heard and/or start a discussion. See this very submission :)
