comment What are some current opinions on WPF?
Maybe you can get a better answer if you include some examples of the bad things you've heard that concern you.

comment What do you think of this new if-then syntax
@Falmarri: Fair enough, so I guess my answer to that would be that Python would be better to support classic switch statements.

comment What do you think of this new if-then syntax
I don't think the question was worded directly towards Python only answers, but if that was the intent please tag as Python as well.

comment Functional Programming vs. OOP
Do you mean declarative eand imperative are not orthogonal to each other? And I am not refuting the fact that you can do functional in an OO language and vice versa.

comment Functional Programming vs. OOP
@missingfaktor: No I am not confusing the concepts. An object typically has accessors, modifiers, data members and member functions. Yes not all objects need to have modifiers and you can implement them as immutable. But if you look at any arbitrary OO program, it will almost certainly have several objects which have modifiers and yet are still used by multi threads. I.e. in an OOP paradigm it's pretty rare to have everything immutable.
