How Scala compares with 20 other programming languages according to Reddit
- j-pb 11y agoI like the subtle clojure bashing. "Of course there is a bias in the happiness graph because nobody uses clojure and lisp for work, but this isnt true for scala at all." Totally doesn't feel like an advertisement for scala by the company that sells scala(services). /s
- goldfeld 11y agoI guess it's really saying "clojure doesn't fare as well in Java shops", which I see as a feature.
- Volundr 11y ago------ So there you have it. Even based on this admittedly "non-scientific" approach, Scala appears to be the only production-proven programming language to make engineers happy and alleviate their need to curse than more broadly-adopted langagues like Java, PHP and JavaScript. ------ That seems to be quite the leap. Without going through the entire list of languages, we're using Clojure quite successfully in production and based on http://clojure.org/companies http://clojure.org/companies, we seem to be in good company. Yet the author went out of their way to claim no one was using it. It's almost like they author sells Scala consulting and libraries or something.
