[hello_there]

Cool stuff. I really like the idea, but why so many symbols? On slide "2.5 Piping" I find the description on the right to be far more readable than the examples on the left. Also the descriptions on the right are familiar, idiomatic Scala which is also a plus. The stuff on the left is impossible to decipher without some documentation and I don't see how it adds value except from saving a few chars. OTOH it introduces significant load on the developer that has to look them up (again and again) in the manual. If saving these chars are important then one might defend introducing a single new operator for some well thought-out abstraction, but introducing 7 new operators is just to much for anyone to remember. Especially the two last operators seems entirely redundant as the language already has quite compact syntax for function invocation (as does any language).
