@loverdos like what?

@dibblego Don't even remember. Something like that I guess http://docs.python.org/2/howto/functional.html …

@loverdos that document is mostly wrong about the subject.

@dibblego Well, that should be of concern to python programmers wanting to do FP.

@loverdos It's not really a surprise that a document in that context is mostly incorrect.

@dibblego Each PL has to live with its own compromises. And, even worse, evolve according to them.

@loverdos In order compromise, one must first understand the situation in which compromise is necessary. Misinformation won't help here :)

@dibblego I believe no-one knows up-front the exact compromises being made. Even with full semantics before-hand, the possibilities are open
