This title (for posterity: "All mainstream languages marketed as functional are losing market") is extremely editorialized and is even contradictory to the text of the article. Please don't do this.
- nudpiedo 8y agoUnfortunately I could not link to the section which actually shows this data. I though the topic of FP and market share is relevant for the HN community where FP is often a big topic... the rest of the article is programming languages without any especial surprise. P.S. can some admin edit the title and add “(see the last section)” so the topic of less users of functional languages can be spoken and explored in the community?
- soneca 8y agoI think you tried to steer the discussion too much instead of justing let people read the text and reach their own conclusions. Which might be nothing like yours. Now, as a result, the post is flagged and there is no discussion at all.
- pcwalton 8y agoIn the future, I suggest submitting the article with a non-editorialized title, as the rules stipulate, and then starting a comment thread to spur discussion.
