@edelaney05 FP is great because it upsets sclerotic thinking. Understanding the “why” and not merely the “what” pays enormous dividends.
.@edelaney05 Unrelatedly, the greatest sclerosis of the object-oriented mind is a blindness to the pathologies of statefulness.

@warrenm wha? It feels like 99% of the bugs I fight in OOP are state related. Seems like statefulness is unavoidable -more about mitigation? -
@edelaney05 It’s undesirable to slavishly avoid state. The problem is underestimating the combinatorial explosion of possible interactions.
