>> transcending to a higher plane and looking down to the folks who are stitching together if statements, for loops, make side effects everywhere, and are doing highly inappropriate things with IO.

Thank goodness Captain Imperative scampered out of his goto hovel to remind us wizards to feel bad for being better than everyone. ;)

Your purely functional insults have no side effect on me, wizard.

What is with the unprovoked condescension?

I guess I get the article author was trying to be provocative but what are you doing?

To lay it all out in full:

TFA wrote out a bunch of problems with imperative code asked you to take it on faith that imperative is not inferior to functional. Then he added a bunch of snark, implying that functional programming is just a superiority complex (which is what I quoted).

I quoted the snark to indicate that I was very aware that the author was mocking FP.

serbuvlad asked why you can't just X. I linked to the exact function that does that for you.

do_not_redeem then suggested I was unaware that the author was mocking FP.

		FWIW I (author) didn’t want to mock functional programming. I consider myself an aficionado of functional programming patterns :)
