Why I Find Free Palestine Inspiring
Not seeing a lot of new projects come in scala
what's scala
A jvm language that takes the worst of java and functional programming paradigms and produces a community of douche-bros whose answer to every problem is scala.
And that’s why you work at DocuSign
the rise and death of scala
People at our company should see this survey: SCALA is dead and they want to do Python to Scala migration
Sounds like your company has United healthcare influence
Is this for data eng stuff? Honestly just use Java if not python
I think Haskell is taking over as the hip new sophisticated type system language
There’s always one Haskell guy who will say that. For the past 3 decades, there’s always one.
Jane Street uses OCaml, which seems like a twin flame to Haskell… Also, Java 16 finally introduced a verbose, half-assed implementation of algebraic data types, which scala, Haskell, and OCaml have had for at least a decade.
I don’t think any programming language is really dead. Somewhere out there somebody is running Visual Basic, PHP, and other “dead” languages for whatever purpose. Scala is probably doing just fine in popularity. I’ve seen it mentioned a lot in Stack Overflow surveys. Not that that’s a good indicator I’m just saying that it’s relevant.
Visual Basic can’t die, due to excel macros. PHP is living a 2nd life as Hack over at FB/Meta… I believe Perl is what you were thinking of there
The whole BE at Angies List a few years ago was all Scala. It was wonderful to deal with. Take with a grain of salt coming from a from-ent engineer. That BE is probably still in use to some degree.
I think Twitter had an absolute ton of Scala IIRC. I haven’t heard anything about them moving away from that yet
Cobol all the way
Colorado School of Mines literally teaches it as a main language, in order to kickstart their students’ careers off the corpse of some boomer’s career 😂 Simply mesmerizing. What innovative thinking at that school.
Haha! Just make it cloud native, all problems solved! 😂
Dang, I forgot that existed. I’ll keep Kotlin.
Dying yes. Only academics love that crap! They then join the real world and bring in that infection!!
You’ll never escape this shithole with that kind of mentality.
Kotlin
I’ll accept that.
+1. I love Kotlin, it is what Java should have been.
