> After a series of embarassing public disasters involving OOP & mutable state, the world has finally realized the wisdom of John Hughes and switched to functional programming.

Which world do you speak of? Most of the jobs I'm aware of (for example, java, .net, php, etc.) are still a mix of OOP and procedural.

Please read the post! It clearly states this is a futuristic 2016 scenario. (of course it is complete fantasy, but that's not the point)

This blog's theme, unfortunately, makes the first paragraph, which is entirely a link, look like just another part of the header for the blog post. It blends in with the post title, date, and separator line. I only looked up and saw the "2016" introduction after I started reading about Apple requiring Haskell for apps and was confused.
