I just don't get Erik Meijer, though I think he's quite entertaining. He seems to enjoy taking the other side wherever he is. Here's a talk I was at a couple years ago where he makes fun of the ideas he's presenting in this article: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-RAltgH8tw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-RAltgH8tw . Key quote: "obsession with monads is a medical condition".

Indeed, in last year's Reactive Programming course from Coursera, Erik's position was that one shouldn't be too fundamentalist about programming languages, and instead pick whatever works from each language. He seems to be having a bit of fun with us all. That said, I respect a people that can change their minds.
