09/18/2018, 8:09 PMI knew it from the beginning, since my mentor told me about some "new wonderful" language and the mnemonics to remember the name of the new language -- an island near St. Petersburg (so if you want to find the language -- look for an island near St. Petersburg)

09/20/2018, 8:24 AM@Mohamed Ebrahim, 42 800 ppl are living there on 15 sq km -- it's not radioactive. You can check it yourself (I think it's simpler than get to Jakarta/Java), but it's dangerous only by one reason -- you may like St. Petersburg and wish to stay there for much more longer. Also Kotlin from Jetbrains is not radioactive either -- it's 100% safe, environment-friendly, and takes care of programmer's mental health
