Backwards: - The technical merit of #Scala is _the_ reason why Twitter works well as a distributed system - Scala is older than Go, and Twitter is not the only example in its track record "Hipster language"? Try your first 100 lines, you'll love it

Twitter should rewrite the Scala parts in something with a proven track record like Golang and definitely don’t get tempted to try another hipster language. Language success is impossible to predict and can’t be chosen merely on technical merit (they’re social constructs)

Folks, get your act together. This was #Scala 15 years ago. Scala needs some more serious marketing.

@BrianGoetz Genuine snippet of code from today -- if you'd have told me that this was Java, 5 years ago, I'd have told you to stop taking the piss. Just brilliant, I'm in awe.
