I used to be a strong proponent of #Groovy. I presented many public tutorials, alone or together with @mittie or the late @tammofreese. I was very sad when @jetbrains dumped it for a then much less capable language (#Kotlin). Groovy‘s tail recursion feature is my implementation. Groovy has (or had?) phantastic libraries for parallel and concurrent programming.
