As much as I love Scala, partly those reasons you just described, it's compilation speed is just too slow for doing prototypes.

Since when it's been the most interesting thing about the software in which language it's been written in?

I mean sure sometimes it is but show me a Rust software that didn't advertise itself being written in Rust.

Why every time I read about Rust the title is in form "xyz written in Rust"?

For example Unreal engine is a game engine. Not "a game engine written in C++".

I had the same experience yesterday. Tried to setup a personal account to access a group and next time I logged in I got the same message about not following their "Community Standards". How is that possible? I didn't even do anything yet! Continued for them to review the ban but I had to stop on the very first step where they asked my phone number since I'll never give them such an information. Now the whole shit is stuck and I cannot even remove my account without giving them my number.

Isn't this just a phishing scam? This should be illegal.

Is this also why ketamine is shown such good results treating depression?
