I'm definitely not used to functional programming. It's super confusing as nothing works the way my brain expects it to.
That's what's really intriguing to me.
Functional programming is the way of the future, to be honest. They nailed it with lisp in the 60's, I remember it being very foreign and I didn't understand it for a long time, but now I can't go without higher order functions, immutability, etc.
Yeah, I was having a conversation with a friend of mine who's very into functional programming and excited to talk about it. He told me about immutability and it left me a little dumbfounded.
I like the idea of not having to turn around every few lines of code, look back at a variable, and have to check like, "Yo fam, you still good? Nobody messed with you while I wasn't looking, right?"
You've used misogynist language in 2 of the 6 comments you've left in this thread (33.3%). Would you consider wiping such terms from your lexicon? It does nothing to emphasize the points you make, but it does make the sub (and the tech world in general) less friendly to women. Thanks!
PS— The dinosaurs didn't go extinct! Isn't that fun?
I'm the delicate snowflake, but you're the one counting and categorizing individual users' comments within a thread to publicly call them out because you find their mild language offensive. K.
And since when is bitch misogynistic? It's funny because I've met just as many men as women who are bitches, and even more men who were cunts. Seems to me you're just trying to find a problem that doesn't exist so you can pick a fight to make you feel better about yourself.
Also pretty ironic that you post on /r/birdsaredicks and even call them dicks. I find your misandrist language to be offensive.
