Entirely off-topic (or maybe not given the nature of like 20% of the comments here), but it's getting seriously annoying how in every thread even tangentially related to programming there are ten or so people (not the same people, not trying to call anyone out) trying to proselytize about functional programming and/or static typing.

They're not panaceas, they're just alternative approaches to programming no worse nor better and they don't need to be brought up in every. Single. Post.
