Are we entering the age where functional programming is cool because parallelism?

@dibblego who cares? Lets just be glad FP is gaining momentum.

@josefusbarnabas I care because I like things that are true.

@dibblego you don't think FP is more conducive to parallelization than imperative?

@josefusbarnabas False dichotomy.

@dibblego sure whatever. I think software doesn't have to suck. FP is a step in that direction. Elitist attitudes don't facilitate progress.

@josefusbarnabas I have no idea how that helps me understand things that are true.

@dibblego help me understand how FP isn't more conducive to writing parallel applications.
