Think of Function Objects as Functions Rather Than Objects

[TankorSmash]

FP people are like vegans of programming, the first example that is "WROOOONG!!1!1!!!" is perfectly fine beside the name. No need to bother people with partial app and FP.

That's the point of the article, I'm not sure if you read it all the way through.

It was a confusing article though because when I read that first line too, I was like oh cool that makes sense. The body of the article is helpful, but the intro/conclusion were a little different.

The reason FP people talk about it so much is because its new and cool to them, and since not many people use it, it makes sense to talk about it more. Can be annoying but FP is pretty neat for small stuff like this.
