A comment on Confessions of a Ruby Developer Whose Heart was Stolen by Scala. Parent comment
I don't think so. It is full of syntactic noise, for what is really just notation for building a cyclic structure.
* type annotations stated explicitly, not inferred
* type variables given multiple times
* too much non-verb, non-noun syntax e.g. `#:::`
* and the actual construction of the cycle is stated imperatively with great ceremony (despite it being an applicative)
It is the opposite of dense.
