"Knowing LinkedIn is saying "enough" is a real breather for me. At this point, I can stop. Hopefully it will trigger a chain reaction, and leave Scala for the academics."

You later speak of "hate" while justifying on the decision of one company your dismissal of a whole ecosystem. The chain reaction comment was tasteless and in no way looks like an opinion trying to make the platform better as a community.

If you don't like it, drop it.

Also FWIW in my experience with academics, most of them use Python, go figure.

I don't usually reply to comments like this one but this time I could not resist. Sorry.

I think criticizing something that you decide not to use is pretty valid, doesn't justify an ad-hominem attack, and certainly doesn't count as "hate".

I think pron knows what he's talking about, considering that's all what he does in pretty much every Scala-related submission.

He's not hating Scala, he's just desperate selling his 5 years out of date opinion about it on every occasion he can find.

Yep. Most recently 6 months ago. Now there's no longer need for me to sell my outdated opinion as it seems to be doing a great job selling itself.
