Using abbrevations for something that is not common knowledge is a way to shut out people from discussion IMO - change my mind.

  I agree in principle, but I'd figure most people on HN would know what FP and OOP are.

    Maybe, I have 20+ years of work experience as a software engineer and love functional programming, but nothing triggered my brain when seeing "FP" in the title, may of course saying more about me than the community. I just dont like when people use abbrevations as it is common knowledge, more junior peers may feel it is common knowledge, why not just being a bit more expressive?
