Character Sketches
OCaml
The quiet genius in the corner who invented half of modern type theory and never got credit. OCaml's type system is a masterpiece; its ecosystem is an archaeology dig.
Scala
The PhD student who insists on explaining category theory at dinner parties. Scala has the intellectual firepower of ten languages, which is precisely the problem.
