I don't care about who wrote the article, I was curious about its content. What is inaccurate about it? Are there better articles on this subject than this one?

Other languages do have powerful tools for expressive generic programming. They just don't call them "modules." OCaml is probably the odd one out here, and saying "other languages don't have *true* modules" is like saying "other languages don't have *true* functors." The word gets overloaded in stupid ways precisely be...

At many companies I've worked, you'd rather _eat_ shit than try and get a purchase order for even a $500 piece of software.

I agree, this is probably the worst part about technical interviews. I've been doing a lot of interviews lately, and one thing I've found useful is to ask questions to narrow the scope up front. Sometimes questions are deliberately vague to see if you do this, sometimes the interviewer is just not good at interviewing....

It's just roasted, washed, ground nuts that you run hot water through. I know... "natural" doesn't mean good. There are plenty of toxic plants. Just make sure you drink more water than coffee. For each cup of coffee you drink drink at least an extra cup of water that day.

You should charge more. Realistically, at $50/hr you can only expect to bring in ~70,000/hr if you're completely booked during the best years. If that is awesome for where you live, then OK! But that's starter-dev salary for where I am (or even below that).

They disagree on facts, which is pretty much what it means to be triggered. It's exactly what your definition says: it's a substitution.
