This video you've linked shows many general and philosophical statements but really not that many concrete examples... I stopped before the end because i got a bit fed up with general sentences like "complexity is the ennemy". From what i've read about the astonishing number of scala features, i am more than ready to believe him, but i would really need more examples...
