PS Perhaps they should make an actual unit test suite for their compiler. Instead they have a couple of dozen tests and have to guess if their compiler PR will break things.
Now every tool has to adapt to Scala 3. And you guess it? It will take time. Even IntelliJ still doesn't correctly highlight syntax on some parts that also exist in Scala 2. And this has been years after Scala 3 was launched. It's mind-boggling.
They could have improved upon Scala 2 and incrementally add more capabilities. It's obvious they don't care about Scala's industry success. They care mostly about the academic success. Nothing wrong with that, but that should be made very clear.
In Scala, they have a huge debate with zealots arguing against, for example, early return; they would describe how bad it will be blah blah blah e.g. https://tpolecat.github.io/2014/05/09/return.html, meanwhile Kotlin supports early return with absolutely no issue.
Now social media, controlled by algorithms, is just like a permanent informercial. You have direct ads and first level indirect adds (sponsored content), but it goes deeper than that, when they manage set up a "viral trend" you have a lot of people acting as speaker person for brands without even realizing.
Attention shapes who you will become in the future, because it focus on what matters to you. When you outsource that to others, they can mold you into what is more profitable to them. Specially kids, who are at the prime time for being influenced.
