It’s been a nice weekend. Great time with friends on Friday night, Saturday and Sunday at the in-laws, and lots of hacking relaxing interspersed throughout. This week I’ll be giving an expanded presentation on Scala, which is where most of my hack time has been spent.

I’ve made several posts about Scala and another reblog about Urbantastic, who’s employing an interesting static-view-dynamic-content mechanism. This link is much about Scala in the enterprise, and that’s exciting. However it’s also about how Java the language is fading, while Java the platform continues to rise. Very interesting, even exciting.
I’ve found a nice series of introductory articles on the Scala programming language, a recent obsession of mine. If, like me, you’ve found some of the documentation on the official site too theoretical, I recommend this article as a good starter. 20% theory, 80% pragmatism.
Interesting article on concurrent programming in Scala using some functional voo-doo.
