I am curious to what extent Paul Phillips lecture [<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=4jh94gowim0" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=4jh94gowim0</a>] is just a rant or in-depth Scala criticism. If he&#x27;s right then seems that we should not expect bright future for Scala.<p>I am wondering what Scala experts would say (I don&#x27;t know Scala sufficiently to trust my judgment)?
