How Akka Typed Incentivizes You to Write Good Code
Akka Typed is one of the best things that happened with the Akka API. We explore how good practices are baked into the API directly.

We discuss the tradeoffs between 3 different styles of writing parallel code, in terms of thread use (and other effects) in Scala and Akka.
Learn to read files in Scala like a boss and compare it to other styles in other languages. We write a simple API which looks almost as easy as Python’s read...
Maximize the call-by-name semantics in Scala and manipulate your results when you want them.
We walk you through one of the foundational skills for Spark performance optimization: reading the Spark UI and the graph of how your job is structured.
We go on a short trip to Nothing (and nothing-ness) in Scala. Nothing is actually pretty useful.
Daniel goes into another rant about learning (and teaching) Scala using loops. Are they actually useful?
We demystify one of the hardest concepts in Akka Streams: materialized values.
In this article you’ll learn one of the most important Spark skill: reading how your job will run. This is foundational to any further Spark optimization.
Daniel goes into a small rant about learning (and teaching) Scala using variables.
