Your comment is about pure functional programing, which the linked article does not explicitly talk about. But even functional programing with mutable state has some pointing-and-laughing going on - for example, here: http://i.imgur.com/FM2DXkf.png http://i.imgur.com/FM2DXkf.png.
- babygoat 11y agoNor does the linked article explicitly talk about so-called "mostly functional" programming, but lostcolony's comment is on point either way. Is there some context around your linked meme that implies mutable state or pointing-and-laughing?
- steego 11y agoI think this is a slide where people really have missed the joke. Scott Wlaschin does an excellent presentation on Function Programming Design Patterns (http://www.slideshare.net/ScottWlaschin/fp-patterns-ndc-london2014 http://www.slideshare.net/ScottWlaschin/fp-patterns-ndc-lond...) where he talks about using functional patterns to properly model domains. I suspect Scott did a search on "Design Patterns" and "F#" to see what was already out there. He was probably frustrated that the only thing he saw were references and translations of GoF design patterns. From what I gather, Scott's slide was a funny way of getting out of the way that his presentation was not going to be another thing about translating GoF design patterns to F#. (Full disclosure, I actually did that presentation here: http://sgoguen.github.io/presentations/FS-Patterns-2/#16 http://sgoguen.github.io/presentations/FS-Patterns-2/#16) UPDATE: Just confirmed with Scott that was the inspiration of this slide and joke.
