It's been long since I last wrote in english (probably never) but I found today was a good day to take this nack (start anew).
I read lately a lot about programming languages. Being a 100% JAVA (lazy) guy I never found the right moment to start. Finally via Coding Dojo's at Run Room with the people from Agile Spain I lost fear and made the first step.
I'm currently focused on Scala. I chose an OOP+Functional to start with and discovered it's scripting too !?!?. I made that choice after I had my attempts the past with python (scripting) and found that learning paradigm and API all at once was too much for me. Having JAVA's API in Scala world is really helping.
But let's get back to the subject of the post.
Something I've been paying some attention involuntary is the reactor pattern. I read from it today at aitorciki's post on concurrency inabout python and there I learnt that it's what Node.Js is actually doing. That struck me. I had read about Twisted and also had seen Node.Js code but failed to see the pattern there. I'll now get to the theory and will start digging.
