+Eric Normand's musings on programming paradigms and their application,
+with a soft spot for functional programming.
+
+[Programming Paradigms and the Procedural Paradox] (2017)
+: A discussion on our tendency to conflate *paradigms* with their
+ *features*; for example, when trying to answer "can this language
+ express that paradigm?", we often reduce the question to "does
+ this language possess those features?".
+
+ Normand wonders whether we do this because the procedural
+ paradigm's metaphor (a series of steps that each may contain any
+ number of sub-tasks) maps so well to its features (sequential
+ statements, subroutines) that it trained us to mix those up.
