- stjohnswarts 5y agoYeah it is far superior to cmd. But I mean cmd was frozen in the 90s it seems anyway.
- Narishma 5y agocmd is a shell. The old terminal is called conhost I think.
- ethbr0 5y agoI figured I'd get this from someone. ;) I'm approximating that 99% of people who use Windows use default terminals for built-in legacy shells, and thus effectively analogous terminology. You're correct though!
- thaway2839 5y agoI get the feeling that there's a bunch of people working for, or being paid by, Microsoft who really love functional programming. Some of Microsoft's best outputs comes from those teams/folks. It could just be a coincidence/confirmation bias, so I wonder if there's actually something to that.
- vorpalhex 5y agoIf you care about programming enough to really have preferences on things like functional or OO or other kinds of "deep" topics, then you're invested.
- mananaysiempre 5y ago> I get the feeling that there's a bunch of people working for, or being paid by, Microsoft who really love functional programming. Simon Peyton Jones, Simon Marlow, Edward Kmett, Conal Elliott, and I’m sure a lot of other people with fundamental contributions to the Haskell ecosystem who I can’t remember offhand all work or previously worked at Microsoft Research, so that part is just straightforwardly true.
