This was a fascinating read. I'm curious if there was a tension between hiring for diversity and hiring for ‘Do [I] want to work more with this person?’ Still, sounds like a wonderful place to work.

His perspective on 'mutable state' is so well written.

His approach makes me feel better about performance implications while still staying true to the purity of functional programming.

Here's an example:

I'm half way through reading 'Functional Programming for Skeptics' by James Sinclair.

I appreciate the way it's written, particularly the way he talks about the balance of implementing functional paradigms in a JavaScript codebase.

Definitely recommend for JS devs!

Aliza @PoetryDude_ I often prefer ternaries in place of `switch` statements. Linting can also make these more readable.
```
priceSymbol =
(a < 10) ? '$' :
(a < 50) ? '$$' :
(a < 100) ? '$$$' :
'$$$$'
```

Like Jim, I've always been delighted by good URL design.
