I noticed last week or so that Apache Kafka deprecated large amount of Scala API and put new Java API in its place. This can't be good for languages which already generate so much news but so little software.

Kotlin does not have a "kotlin API", because it was designed ground up for 100% Java compatibility. In fact that's their single biggest invariant.

So this is good news for kotlin...And bad for scala ;)
