Almost all of RISC-V is Scala land!

Scala has actually some stand in HW development and high-performance computing. See also https://spatial-lang.org/ which is another Scala DSL, this time for accelerators.

Scala in general is a much underrated language. One of the most powerful high level languages, but with a concise and very clean core. Since the new syntax was introduced in version 3 it even looks amazingly beautiful.

I know, people (frankly especially here on HN) are repeating some FUD about this language, but this are usually issues solved a decade ago.

People should really reconsider trying out Scala. Especially the new major version 3.

This is a waste exaggeration. The Berkley people use Scala but just like everywhere else the majority of RISC-V is SystemVerilog and friends.
