Learning F#

How stupid does that sound?

And how one can make a living of functional programming anyway?
Elixir/Erlang is not for cis-heteros.
Lisp is a meme.
Haskell is for academics.
What's left? OCaml and SML? F# is in the ML family too, but it's a Micro$oft language

Ok now that I'm not drunk: the hilarious thing is that in JS there are all the libraries that allow you to do "functional" programming, and you'll see these beard-strokers insisting on never putting any state into a function and doing everything "the functional way" - all for nothing, because there's no TCO. They're aping an optimization they saw in a cooler language. It's the largest example of cargo-cult programming I have ever seen - by, in my own experience at least, a significant (and very vocal) minority.
