Why do people choose 'Go' over Scala? The latter is a 'better' choice (in my opinion) for web applications and add in the play framework, you've got an ultra-fast, scalable web app. running in minutes. I do admit that Scala has a steeper learning curve, but my guess is that it's worth it.

Can anyone explain WHY Scala seems to be ignored by most of the programming community, especially here on HN, where everyone seems to be in favor of either Node.js or Go... ? Is there anyone who can provide some constructive negative feedback regarding Scala (apart from the learning curve) over GO?
