Well, I'm bored, but surprised to find out that it's easy to start doing some GUI programming using with .

I've been convinced for a while that was dead, but seems to be working fairly ok.

Run the following example on on a box with qt6 libraries installed: https://gist.github.com/vascorsd/1ae097030f51da40007ab74505d148da

It properly shows a basic window with an hello world message, so, success 🎉😅?

(I'm running on which has qt 6.6.1 libraries installed)

How many people out there have changed from to successfully?

The language seems interesting enough, being helps, and there seems to be some interesting opportunities out there to work on it.

So, what's the experience changing from one ecosystem to the other, successful stories, failures, recommended reading or learning resources?

🙂

literally no one:

me: I've written a blog post using a static site generator, about migrating another website from Paradox, a static site generator, to Docusaurus, a static site generator, so we can subsume Pamflet, a static site generator.

After an 8-year pause, I published the first official release of checktimer, my small desktop time tracking application in #scala (to be precise, it uses ScalaFX, a wrapper around JavaFX).

Check it out at https://github.com/ForNeVeR/checktimer

The new language tour for Gleam looks nice - https://tour.gleam.run

is a language statically typed on top of the BEAM virtual machine (the thing powering erlang).

It plays in the ecosystem together with .

I've never touched tech but always been curious and being a developer, gleam talks to me.

Patiently watching it grow 😌

Now that I finally have a proper fiber internet connection I need to focus properly to look for a job. No more excuses.

The interview I did on friday apparently wasn't good enough and "they decided to proceed with other candidates" so back to the wheel again 😔.

Let's see how January and February goes for the market and if job opportunities appear or not.

If anyone knows of positions that are remote and look interesting, I'm listening.

I've taken a look at the discord channel, the reddit post and scalajobs, but pretty sure there are things out there not in those places.

Based in Europe WET timezone, looking for a position. Last position I had was senior software developer where 90% was scala. I know the usual frameworks and libraries and used the language for probably more than 8 years 🤔.

I've been seeing a lot of discussions in Portugal regarding https://expresso.pt/sociedade/2024-01-11-Exodo-tem-um-impacto-brutal-30-dos-jovens-nascidos-em-Portugal-vivem-fora-do-pais-6b42d39c (article in PT - 30% of Portuguese aged between 15 and 39 are emigrants)

I was a bit curious about this, but apparently the study was not yet released and the closest thing I could find was https://diasporafordevelopment.eu/interactive-map/, which I'm not sure how up to date it is and doesn't seem to provide any tables.

So I just scrapped the data and generated a markdown table, in case someone is curious about this kind of stuff: https://gist.github.com/JD557/22ee5494ce99af696e1fda5747eef18e 🙂

That gist also provides the raw JSON data that I used and a #Scala CLI script to generate a CSV, in case you want to do some further analysis.

"With Scala, I did not have time to be bored, either because of involvement in FOSS, or because of the awesome projects I worked on at $work. It’s a language that has grown with me, and the ecosystem always provides something new to learn, or some new library to get excited about, while matching my aspirations."

@alexelcu captures much of how I feel. Scala is a very deep language, we are always discovering and teaching ourselves radically new things. I love that https://alexn.org/blog/2024/01/10/scala-future/

"Update NextDNS with a Scala CLI script"

Today I was reminded how awesome Scala is for scripting, via Scala CLI. And it goes beyond having “batteries included”.
