So you generally only learn new things when you have no other option? ;)
no, but I
like the option of choosing the things I learn (as much as possible). And personally,
I'd rather learn distributed algorithms than Scala :-)
I'm being an arse, ignore me. I realise your main concern is productivity, which is
why any Scala code has been restricted to a few, pretty independent modules.
You're not at all - this is really something we should discuss as a team.
+1 for keeping it isolated to specific modules :-)
