Loving the "Technology Quicksand" terminology! Oh this path looks nice and easy! More, more, more! [... time passes ...] Artax! You have to try! You have to care! You've gotta move or you'll die!!!

Examples of pattern matching in #rustlang . So powerful pattern just like in other functional languages like #scala or #haskell github.com/politrons/Func… #functionalprogramming #opensource #rustlang #keeplearning

The vast majority of systems should have no more than 2 backend languages in play at any one time: A general purpose language tuned for programmer productivity that you can use 99% of the time, and a high-performance language tuned for addressing the last 1% of hotspots...#scala

Ox: the direct-style developer-friendly structured concurrency library for the #JVM, based on #Loom and #Scala, just got an update: apart from bug fixes in the channels, there's more built-in functions, plus some docs with examples to get started! github.com/softwaremill/ox

When I started working on Drools 12 years ago they told me that rules engines were a sunsetting technology. They just changed name to that thing and now in 2023 are saying that rules are for early adopters or even innovators. IT is an infinite "reinventing the wheel" loop.

Make #Scala adoption irresistible by using Atomic Habits: 1. Make it obvious. Show people compelling results built with Scala, so much so that it's impossible not to get their attention. A few years ago, @Akka, Apache Spark, @PlayFramework and @Finagle built such powerful

Beautiful Scala.js app by heartai.net – they are building healthcare applications with Laminar, SAP UI5, d3, and TailwindCSS, and are kindly sponsoring Laminar development. Great to see enterprise adoption of Scala.js! heartai.net/docs/platform/… heartai.net/docs/projects/…

The Euro kinda destroyed Southern Europe's economies The reason is that if you have big differences in wealth/income between two areas like North/West Europe and South Europe Then with separate currencies that would automatically stabilize each other For example: imagine Italy

Few people and companies understand this: #Scala is that rare tool that makes everything easier: - backend - frontend (more than most JS libs, and I've used many) - architecture - domain modeling - testing - code reasoning (underappreciated and directly related to productivity)

Repeat after me. Good abstractions: ✅ Semigroup ✅ Monoid ✅ Monad ✅ Applicative ✅ Functor ✅ Profunctor Bad abstraction: ❌ Strategy ❌ Factory ❌ Builder ❌ Prototype ❌ Adapter ❌ Bridge ❌ Composite
