Ok, now to currying:

“AAAAhhhhhhhhhhhh”

I can’t take it anymore…. all these imperative low level hackers everywhere! How are we supposed to get out of the enduring software crisis, if even in the year 2007 people still think that currying is some freaky complicated stuff that no one needs!?

Currying helps everybody! It improves the readability of the code! It is also very very simple and intuitive.
It also helps in maintaining a declarative way of writing code.

Scala is an interesting alternative to Java.
This podcast episode was produced two years ago. Wouldn’t it be a good idea to cover this topic again after so many developers are now enthusiastic about Scala. Does not need to be a basic kind of episode like this one. Rather a more in-depth coverage would do.

As a side remark to Markus:
a) Your website does not seem to work as expected. When clicking on “add a comment” directly in the eppisode shownotes page, I get an error. But it works when directly entering into the comments section.
b) You got some spam comments though all of the security

Again, thanks for this great and entertaining episode on Scala

Anything planned on Clojure?

best regards
