Fantastic talk by @tomas_mikula. Monads are _not_ about sequencing: https://t.co/4WIfXotq9C (there is really some substance to the "it's just a monoid in the category of endofunctors" meme 😁)
Debunking Common Scala Myths
1. Hiring Challenge? Nope!
This year, I interviewed companies building massive Scala teams (100s strong!):
SwissBorg & SiriusXM with Typelevel Scala
Databricks & Netflix for data engineering
2. Expensive Devs? Not True!
As a recruiter (3+ years at @ScalaJobsDev ), I've seen companies find Scala devs COST-EFFECTIVE. Their strong skills (compared to Java/Kotlin) lead to faster hiring and less interview time!
3. Stability Concerns? Unfounded!
Scala 2.13 (released 5 years ago) is actively maintained.
Scala 3 applications can leverage 2.13 libraries (Scala 3 uses the 2.13 standard library!).
Even popular libraries like Typelvel Cats maintain backward compatibility (newest version works with the 2017 release!)
Love Scala? Considering it?
I've been working & hiring in Scala for 10+ years. Reach out for advice!
#Scala #developer
Few people and companies understand this:
#Scala is that rare tool that makes everything easier:
- backend
- frontend (more than most JS libs, and I've used many)
- architecture
- domain modeling
- testing
- code reasoning (underappreciated and directly related to productivity)
Exciting news for #Scala enthusiasts! 🚀 Dive into the Scala 3 Roadmap for 2024, showcasing our commitment to the future of Scala #development. Expect more frequent releases, improved build times, seamless tooling integration, and much more! ⤵️

I honestly don't understand jealousy and gatekeeping.
It took me 9 years to get to Senior. I share everything I know so that it'll only take you a fraction of that time.
