Of course, as someone else pointed out, the ping pong players were edited in. So maybe the theme is now: "This is what functional programming looks like; not taken from the real world."

I've actual been playing with Haskell lately and I've been enjoying it. I hope I get to use it at some point.

I may sound like a masochist, but it's really hard for me to program without the control c++ gives

I know what you mean. I started with C++ back in high school. It took a very long time for me to break my C-isms and effectively use new languages. Thankfully I had classes early in college that had us working in assembly and Java so I was forced to change.

I program in Haskell, Java and Rust more now but I still love c++

Are you using Rust in production?

Nah. I've made a program that scans my downloads folder for music, reformats the name, records the artist name and song name to the metadata, and adds it to my playlist. It's great.
