If you care about programming enough to really have preferences on things like functional or OO or other kinds of "deep" topics, then you're invested.

> I get the feeling that there's a bunch of people working for, or being paid by, Microsoft who really love functional programming.

Simon Peyton Jones, Simon Marlow, Edward Kmett, Conal Elliott, and I’m sure a lot of other people with fundamental contributions to the Haskell ecosystem who I can’t remember offhand all work or previously worked at Microsoft Research, so that part is just straightforwardly true.

I figured I'd get this from someone. ;) I'm approximating that 99% of people who use Windows use default terminals for built-in legacy shells, and thus effectively analogous terminology. You're correct though!
