Please, take everything he says as a gospel if you can't be bothered to read up on the replies he received the last dozen times. Hint: There is one in this thread.

Yes, it's aaaaaaalways the other people! :-) Oh, wait, it isn't: By the way, pron, as more general complaint, your comments about Ceylon are always very uninformed, but you state t…

I would disagree.

What is your problem? No need to be so passive-aggressive. :-) If you don't want to hear it right from the people who should know it best, I can't help you.

So what, in the above "wall of text", is wrong about Scala or Kotlin? Maybe just check the responses from the last fifteen dozen times? It's not that hard. You're not telling what …

In what sense is it closer to Scala? It's more like a slightly nicer Java: All Kotlin code can be translated back to Java (with some boilerplate), but almost no Scala code could be…

He has been told by both Scala _AND_ Ceylon language developers that his large walls-of-texts are wrong and are largely made-up stuff which sounds plausible to him. Somehow he feel…

Extremely poor cost/benefit ratio.

Sorry, but I don't plan on reading your confused ramblings.

This is what we call FUD.

- extension methods - property syntax + magic identifier - reified - immutable wrappers around mutable collections - const - multiple redundant ways of defining generic upper bound…

Well, it would have ended with the usual "but...but...but, that's just your opinion!!!1!!" anyway.

No, as kibwen said so beautifully, Rust people are always right and don't need to look at anything else.

There is still a huge chunk that does.

> Rust itself isn't particularly influenced by Scala Agree! Sadly, they didn't use all the lessons Scala could offer them when designing their own language. :-( Painful to watch as…

Same bugs on different platforms are extremely hard to find. Different bugs on different platforms are like an early Christmas present: You don't even need to write tests which inc…

Well, I don't think what you say is based on reality if you look at all the broken, half-designed stuff they are trying to ship. (Not understanding (yet) why some design decisions …

Yeah, inventing an API and implementation of a date/time/calendar library from scratch without an existing spec, implementation, tests or experience will surely be totally bug-free…

> but still manages to enhance them via compiler magic and extensions The thing is that Scala tried to do that for years, and after years of battling subtle, leaky abstractions, th…

Please get some help with your mental health issues.

As mentioned in the ticket, the original implementation is BSD. Your last point is not the only thing that matters though. If the runtime already ships with packages X, there is no…

Why is reinventing the wheel considered a good thing? javax.time is considered by some to be one of the best, most well-designed general and versatile libraries for date and time r…

He did the same uninformed rants about other languages for a long time already. It's unlikely that he will do his homework any time soon.

Hopefully this will also happen at lower levels. The "I'm the smartest person in the world, because I work at Google" attitude is a reason I don't interact with/communicate with/co…
