When is it NOT good to use actors in akka/erlang?

I’ve been working with akka for 7-8 months now daily.
When I started, I would be working on applications and notice that actors would be used basically anywhere once inside the actor system for communicating between most objects. So I did the same – spin up another actor for x/y/z.

What kind of problems is an Android beginner likely to encounter in using Scala?

I am a hobbyist programmer who makes and maintains one production system, largely coded in Python, which now has to be ported to Android. I don’t know Java at all. However, SL4A in Android makes Python a bit of a second class citizen re APIs, such as Google Cloud Messaging etc. However, for me, Java appears intimidating with its verbose syntax and strict typing. Scala’s syntax is more appealing and seems like a possible compromise.
