Isn't that the truth! Debugging can bring out the worst in the best of us. Luckily I don't often have to debug code from functional programmers. The errors are usually mitigated by design and often easier to spot or reason about than in a function with a dozen branches mutating the object behind a pointer. The reason I call it a double-edged sword is because the majority will determine what is normal or acceptable. If you come to their office expecting to reveal the shadows on the wall you may very well find yourself looking for another office elsewhere. The harrowing difficulty is in bridging the gaps between each other and our differing approaches to developing software.
