Interesting that is. I once had a chat on the phone with some friends who worked at Twitter that were discussing about Scala at the train station but they briefly complained about the train skipping their station.<p>I jokingly suggested that they've chosen the wrong station and that the 'Scala hype-train' seemed to have actually stopped at my station since that I might have mentioned about using Kotlin instead.<p>Perhaps one could say that if the train is either full or if there's little to no people at the station, it will be likely to skip the station. Quite a fitting tale of Scala vs Kotlin?
