I think the ORM (with Entities) is an anti-pattern. It makes simple queries slightly simpler, and hard queries impossible to express: hence you will need a way to express hard queries. Also Entities are usually mutable. What clean architect

In our model we have "repositories" (they dont talk outside the application, they basically contain queries related to a specific db table), and "services" (they call models, do queries that we not related to a specific

Exactly how we do services. We have one model file per db table (a "repository") in which we define all queries that "logically belong to that table" (sure they do joins and/or sub-queries that involve other tables,

I so much agree with this, I want to hug you. All this encapsulation for sake of encapsulation, and interfaces everywhere even for implementations that the application is married to. I once heard a wise man say: most of these design pattern

You can write OOP-style in C, FP-style in C/C++/Java or even PHP. Sure. Writing pure FP code (pushing all the side effects to the "edges of the program" in C is possible! But it's going to take a lot of discipline f

Having written some Rust and a lot of Ruby, I find Kotlin to be a really nice "typed Ruby". Just like Ruby, Kotlin is an OO language in the core that is really friendly to FP. It's terse (not as terse as Ruby, as there are ty

we need a reference... and PHP is the biggest language that has clearly better options available in it's space. JS is not too pretty either, but I understand many believe it's the only lang the browser understands.

You're a wizzard! JS keeps amazing me. It reminds me of Perl somehow. If Perl and Lua had a child, with some browsers APIs sprinkled on top.

Java is much bigger though in that space. Java's relative market share in the finance industry %LOC is waaaay bigger than COBOL's.

I find this a much better example than the example shown in the article. I even find it quite useful when explained like this. Thanks!

I still think the difference to me as a programmer is largely semantic (except when the performance has to be considered): "rebinding" or "in-place mutation", in both cases it is a mutable variable to me.

I find FP and shadowing have nothing to do with eachother (maybe except though Haskell's do-notation)
380.
by cies 2y ago
I'd say that rebinding a value to a variable is similar to shadowing IN THE SAME SCOPE. Pretty much what Haskell does with the do-notation.

I'm much stricter when it comes to what means immutable. counter = counter + 1 vs counter += 1 Are exactly the same to me. In both cases you bind a new value to counter: I don't care much if the value gets update
