#Kyo 0.15.0 is out and it's yet another packed release! ✨ 🔄 new Monix integration 🚀 multithreaded Scala Native 🔒 STM effect w/ fine-grained locking + TMap ⚡️ Async.gather for parallel execution w/ results collection 🛠️ stream improvements, simplified Batch, and more

Scala doesn't need tooling. This got solved few times over. Scala doesn't need stability. This got solved with Scala 3. It's not perfect but we have a decent balance between stability and innovation. What scala needs is good press. When was the last time Scala was advertised

I wanted to avoid drama but I think I want to share my perspective on this one. I've been using Scala 3 for a few years now, and the experience has been quite surprising. Everything just works across language versions and major improvements are rarely intrusive. And that's with a

Still experimental, but while this might seem as a very small #Scala feature, it's going to make pattern matching so much easier and useful - and hence more widespread. Pattern matching + immutable data is one of *the* most useful traits of FP!

Fun fact: Kyo uses intersection and higher-kinded types with variance to track effects and it's something most languages can't even express! 😱 Haskell can't directly encode the unordered pending effect set, TypeScript/Kotlin/Rust lack proper HKT, and only PureScript comes close

Sat evening - playing around with Kyo - the Scala 3 library for algebraic effects. Must say the Pending type `<` is simply a work of art. One monad rules it all - literally opens up the possibility of having unbounded algebraic effects that can be safely composed within the

I will be speaking at Lambda Days this year! :) I will show how functional Scala with Cyfra can be used to develop GPU programs such as ray tracers and ray marchers - we will develop one live. Ambitious plan now is to clean up, expand and release Cyfra. lambdadays.org/lambdadays2025…

If you want to play with some cool tech and help Kyo become a viable alternative to build high-performance backend systems in Scala Native, we have a new bounty to integrate with #Aeron in #Scala Native! 👇🏽

Here Eric Torreborre makes a compelling case for ditching brittle infra-as-code tools in favor of real programming languages. Bonus: he highlights how Unison | @unison-lang.org on bsky's content-addressed, purely functional design could revolutionize the space. 🚀 Check it out: etorreborre.blog/we-can-do-much…

Jon Pretty Book Principled Metaprogramming in Scala 3: eventbrite.com/e/workshop-pri…

It's ideal to write functions to only accept the narrowest type required for their function, preventing implicit scope creep and complexity in testing. In many scenarios, this becomes quite daunting, requiring many parameters or a new data type to store the only fields necessary.

perfIO 0.2 is finally out! The work on the main new feature, output filters, took me far too long, and required several redesigns. Filters exchange blocks with the underlying BufferedOutput (instead of copying) and support sync, async and parallel implementations.
