I can strongly relate to that. You can write a custom "fill" method for your array and just do "arrray.fill", bam! It just works. You want numpy "zeros"? Just do a template void ze…

Scala has a strong type system and when working with it on a daily basis I was not programming, I was thinking about types and fighting with the compiler. And that is the language …

You can't even imagine how. Reading a code base written by 1 person in the span of 5 years is a quest. Now, imagine the person goes on a vacation.

And that's the whole problem with Scala. When you work with it, you are having a battle with types and compiler more often than you should. Funny but it is not the first typed lang…

Based on your preferences you definitely should try Kotlin :)

> It will take years for large codebases to be upgraded to Scala 3 Which for production level code bases means never. I can't even imagine what we are going to do with our 7 year o…

Scala is a beautiful and elegant language. I really thought that it would be one of my favourite languages when I first started working with it. However, after some time I got dise…

And it would be great to read about such projects. But I have not heard about such. Maybe I would change my opinion.

It is, and C/C++ are used in so many areas which are not system programming right? Being a scientific Python backbone is one of them for example. My claim was that it is nothing ou…

Hmm, I see. It makes sense.

This is great, please do! It would be nice to share it not only on dlang forum too. How does it compare to scid btw? I like R but generally use it for basic stat tasks and plotting…

He is. He just stepped down from the leadership due to family reasons. Atila Neves took it over now.

Unfortunately with scientific computing the only place I see D could be writing custom performance critical algorithms but then again for university folk it is more straightforward…

Last time I tried to install a Rust-based cli network tool it took literally 4 min to compile it! Seriously, 4 minutes for something that monitors your network load. If this is wha…

Applicability is not the main issue. D can be used for anything where speed matters, gamedev, data processing, machine learning, kernel programming. It is not a niche language. But…

I feel like the primal joy of programming in Python is somehow lost between those type hints. Type hints even though being very useful do look alien in Python. I myself like type h…
