I misread Exceptioncatcher as Exceptionhatcher and I think it still fits
I believe the lifecycle goes ExceptionLayer, ExceptionIncubator, ExceptionHatcher
It’s critical you don’t throw your exceptions too early, they need to learn to fly first 🤣
functional programming ftw

Functional Programming Practice: Quicksort
Been working in Clojure for over a decade now, and would never never go back to using imperative/OOP at this point.
TBH Rust is pretty nice, it borrows (pun intended) a lot of ideas from the functional world (algebraic data types, traits, closures, affine types to an extent, composition over inheritance, and the general vibe of type-driven development), but it’s much easier to write fast, efficient code, integrate with decades of libraries in imperative languages, and the ecosystem somehow feels mature already.
Rust solves a specific problem, and it’s good at letting you write correct programs with low resource usage. It’s definitely a huge improvement on C and C++.
That said, I find a language like Clojure is far more productive because it’s more expressive, and development is done interactively. With Clojure, you start up your program, connect the editor to it, and evaluate code as you go seeing changes live. Once you’ve worked this way, it’s really hard to go back to having to compile your whole program each time you want to see what it’s doing. It’s like having a conversation with the compiler. It makes it very easy to experiment with different ways to solve a problem, and it gives a lot of confidence because you always see exactly what the code is doing. Clojure also interops with JVM and Js runtimes, so those entire ecosystems are available for use.
Incidentally, there’s a Lisp style language that embraces a lot of Rust principles. https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp
Would you make a game with functional programming? Or anything with a GUI?
Repeat after me: public static void main(String[] args)
public static void main(String[] args)
public static void main(String[] args)
public static void main(String[] args)
Am I summoning the flying spaghetti monster?
I guess you could call this an OOPsie
Feeling attacked with Leggable and Fleable. I’ve been known to write a concern or two in Ruby on Rails but what can I say? I like my code DRY.
My biggest problem with it is that those aren’t verbs. You might have LegCount -> Countable and FleaCount -> Countable though.
