What I would take issue with is describing a non functional or non Monadified code as something written by a gunslinger without care for robustness, as if writing things in Monads has a guarantee of robustness or correctness or even maintainability.
- anonzzzies 3y agoMy time to peddle back; you are right. Didn’t mean to imply that, but did. I do see (irl) that it improves the odds though.
- c_crank 3y agoMy IRL experience with pure functional code in academia was so unpleasant that I have since strived to stay as far away from it as I possibly can.
- anonzzzies 3y agoI am not sure we need to go pure functional all over, but I recognise your suffering. I mean; I like the intellectual challenge of building something ‘perfect’ that cannot be used, however there is a mix to be had. I thought Mercury always had a nice idea; its prolog with types and adding det makes it stricter.
