OH: "These newer hybrid languages have learned from Scala's mistakes."
Sure, except they're making a classic mistake that Scala did not make — you can't aim for Java++, b/c Java will be Java++ and will eat your lunch; you need Microsoft's monopoly to barely survive

Rust seems to still have hype but is well deserved.

Rust 4 or 5 years ago seemed so much harder. Many of the explicit life times pains seem to be gone. The language evolved very well.

Go. FP programmers tend to laugh at it and of course it lacks things we consider basic, but its simplicity has certain charm to it. It is really easy to pick up and be productive really quickly.

But GO is so simple that if forces you to produce a lot of code, lacks abstractions. Mutability, ‘if err = nil’ every 5 lines of code and plenty of returns.
