gofpher VS scala

I'm glad to see this idea getting some traction again. I haven't used Go much in the last few years, but I started writing playing around with a similar idea back in 2016 when I was working on a small compiler for a configuration management tool, and later put together a [small stand-alone proof of concept library](https://github.com/rebeccaskinner/gofpher) as part of a [talk](https://speakerdeck.com/rebeccaskinner/monadic-error-handlin...).

At the time, I remember finding FP in go surprisingly ergonomic. Implementing the library to support it was a pain since the type system wasn't expressive enough to prevent everything from devolving into a pile of untyped reflection, but it was reasonably easy to keep that an implementation detail. On the whole, I felt like go would have lent itself well to the "dash of FP for flavor" style of programming that seems to be gaining popularity these days. Unfortunately, in 2017 at least, the Go community seemed to have very little interest in the idea.

I still have a fondness for Go. It always felt nice to use. If the language features have caught up to the point where a robust library like this is feasible, and the communities attitude has shifted, I might take another look at the language.

Monadic error handling like in ML work-alikes, Rust etc. would be a good start. Adopt:

I've been talking to the local Go user group. No one even knows about that concept. This continues a pattern of general ignorance/lack of looking beyond one's horizon I've noticed.

Recently I had to revisit the "JVM languages universe" again. Yes, language(s), plural! Java isn't the only language that uses the JVM. I previously used Scala, which is a JVM language, to use Apache Spark for Data Engineering workloads, but this is for another post 😉.

Big Scala vibes here, see also [1].

Scala is the next-generation Java virtual machine (JVM) language that is rapidly gaining popularity as a modern alternative to Java.

Compiling Scala without a SAT solver is probably too difficult.

The CNF Converter is a gem.

In addition to Structured Query Language(SQL), we can also use a variety of different programming languages, such as Python, Java, JavaScript, R, Julia, Scala, or any other programming language as long as it supports a basic database connection and functions to perform all of those operations, to connect to databases and perform more advanced query operations on the data. This gives us greater flexibility and allows us to apply custom-created logic to the data.

Based on Lambda Calculus, developed by Alonzo Church in the 1930s, functional programming has been implemented in mainstream programming languages like JavaScript, Python and Java. Programming languages like Erlang, Haskell or Scala are better suited for functional programming as they are designed to be functional first.
