You know what's fun?

Getting a nil where you are supposed to have an Optional.

[mattnewton]

Afaik this is impossible in swift and kotlin, only optional values can contain nill.

[tbarbugli]

Try Core Data with Swift and you will see that happening. Lazy objects (vaults) are mapped from objc into Swift and will happily crash on something like a = b where both are not optional.

It's possible in Java.

[rowanG077]

so... Just make that impossible. It's not like this is unprecedented at this point. It's a standard feature even C++ of all languages supports.

Somebody has used Scala

[still_grokking]

More likely a Java lib form Scala than Scala as such.

In "pure" Scala (not in the FP sense, but just without mixing with Java) something like that is almost impossible.
