Marcus Jenkins on Nostr: Skoda makes a car for computer science professors lamenting the passing of #algol68 ...
Skoda makes a car for computer science professors lamenting the passing of #algol68 and rejoice the resurgence of another programming language that is equally impossible to learn and also makes write-only code?
Seriously, #scala is for showing off. Flexing in an academic environment, fine. Not in the real world. I would happily fire any programmer insisting on writing in Scala. Unmaintainable, unintelligible bullshit not needed in a commercial environment.
