I think as developers we should constantly learn about new approaches. Doesn't mean we need to use them blindly and follow the herd. Sometimes it's also useful to learn something to realize why one should not use it, and how the current approach is actually better.
- madiathomas 7y agoThat's why I learnt F#. Just to see how functional programming is going to help me deliver solutions faster to my penny-pinching clients. It was an eye-opener but I will still stick to functional programming until FP catches on. If it happens. At age 37, I feel young and really wish that I will still be able to program at age of 50 and beyond.
- eska 7y agoYou're definitely still young, just kidding :-) I've heard good things about F# for business logic, but haven't used it myself yet.
- madiathomas 7y agoI want to try F# on my next side project and see how it goes. I hope I will get help from F# online community when I get stuck.
