I was very happy back then when scala shows up.. but with time i think computer languages should just get out of your way.. be simple as possible..
nowadays im more a Dennis Ritchie/Ken Thompson fan.. they had make simple tools with C and Unix, that just worked..
This is also the Go language school of thought.. Languages must get out of our way, get things done in the simplest way possible..
Functional language people , are more passionate about proving some theoretical points like using immutability all way down.. even if this will blow out your memory resources, or make your code longer..
i think language designers need to be more pratical, and i like when the simplicity way of thought like the one seen in Go comes around the table, to make discussion a little bit more interesting..
We nee more simplicity, work less, so we can be more with our children or family.. and spending less time on our computer.
