It's nice to see this surface again. Personally I think it's interesting, and useful. If you want to read previous discussions about it from here on HN, here are some references:

The original "Why Function Programming Matters" has, of course, also been submitted:

There was less commentary on that.
- shawndumas 16y agoYou know... I often do not give encouragement and/or express gratitude because I am afraid of being corny. But I am beginning to see that even if you already know the value you bring to HN, or even if it seems sycophantic to say I appreciate you, it never matters so much that it should suppress a sincere, neighborly, human, "thank you, keep it up"! So even if this is the wrong place (or even the wrong way) to do this -- an upvote seems insufficient -- I want to say thank you, RiderOfGiraffes, for all that you bring to the experience that is HN; may your tribe increase.
- RiderOfGiraffes 16y agoThank you - appreciated.
