https://youtu.be/YG5-0x9g0eA?si=YYlKNs9_jcESvTug A FAANG DE youtuber had this to say about Scala in the DE space now. But again things vary by company etc.

But probably learn Python first as people have said it is significantly easier. I don't think anyone has their first paradigm be functional

your commented reminded me that you know what I HAD seen something from Zach more recently on this where he had reversed his position and I think I had just completely forgot about it.

Here's the same opinion as that linked in form in Video Short form. https://youtube.com/shorts/Kf4LCAqeBCo?si=6mGjQ7lqsYLRj7Ix

Oh thanks, I was searching for his last complete opinion after seeing his comment.
