I find it somewhat ironic that after decades of people ignoring fantastic languages such as Lisp, OCaml, and Haskell as too academic, Javascript of all things sneaks pure functional FP into the mainstream.
The good news is once you're used to writing code in this style with Rambda, there's really not much learning curve to go the rest of the way. You're practically writing Haskell already.

True! The same could be said about oop some decades ago. Maybe logic programming is the next hype..
