  The problem isn’t what FP does—it’s what it actively prevents.
ChatGPTism?

  But beauty without utility is just decoration.
ChatGPTism?

  FP is suitable for expressing one kind of program: a calculator, where the result is the only thing of importance.

I am working on an failure proof introduction to Lisp/Scheme for imperative programmers. I always thought there was something unapproachable about Lisp. But I finally figured it out, and I want to document my path for people like me. It's going to be great. Expect to be done in a week or so!
