@scottwlaschin I'm really interested in the full context, as well as the intended joke :) @sgoguen
@ScottWlaschin @wycats Yet Alonzo Church *literally* showed us everything can be encoded as pure functions in the 30's
@sgoguen "everything can be encoded in" is fairly pointless when it comes to how one should organize software projects. @scottwlaschin
@wycats @ScottWlaschin I disagree. Being able to reduce the problem space to reliable non-leaky abstractions can be useful.
@sgoguen everything can be reduced to very low level abstractions, but not necessarily what you want to program with @scottwlaschin
@wycats I don't see it that way. I think FP expresses many OOP concepts more elegantly. This is a fast and loose way of saying that.
@sgoguen And the idea that "functions" don't require any kind of best practices to use effectively in large projects is just silly.
@scottwlaschin Funny how exactly? @sgoguen
@wycats @abt_programming @ScottWlaschin @jeroldhaas @sgoguen .. and how would you implement an FP bigotry pattern? #NewInterviewQuestions
@wycats @benlesh @scottwlaschin meant for it to be taken lightly. Context is key to humour.
