   yeah, it's not "either C# with a better language and less ecosystem, or java"... you can use scala and get something more powerful than C# and still get the java ecosystem. I suspect I will be using scala as my main language

   I love the new keyboard and the super low travel. It definitely took a lot of getting used to.

   Does this only apply to shops that cannot easily upgrade to 12 once it's out? Or are there other support-related problems with adopting 9/10 for production for server-side apps?

    true. though the problem extends to developers and developer managers as well. I've seen so many colleagues say stuff when discussing a candidate like "Well they just could write <x> algorithm on the board correctly. I found

    everyone's biased, the key is being able to separate fact from opinion, whether a producer or consumer of an argument The same is true when it comes to source versus fact. A broken watch is still right twice a day

    Newton's famous science book uses 'the philosophy of nature' in its title, not 'science'. I think those two terms tend to have different connotations these days.

    which is why I'd be against adding them in Java and favor keeping the power in scala.

    most of these criticisms I agree with but I don't blame scala as a language for it. I write, and encourage my colleagues to write, code that is very easy to follow and reckon about. Few obscure operators, almost zero implicits....
