My experience is that fp is notoriously bad at dealing with errors. Errors are quite common in everyday business cases, although usually ignored, (like in c#), which makes it hard to “fit” into whatever you are working with. Any language that doesn’t treat errors as a first class citizen in it's syntax is a bad one, which I feel like that languages like Haskell isn’t doing well. Also errors are contextual so it’s not always so that an error is one in some context and may be so in others. So the language must be flexible enough to handle both in a nice way. I think Java is kind of a good example of this where it had checked exceptions to signal errors, but when introducing fp syntax they completely botched how errors work. This left you with a mess and programs keeps crashing because people didn’t know that code could throw errors.

"Focus follows mouse" is what I use to keep the file manager from popping up when click-dragging files.
The biggest problem with this is if the target URL doesn't load but also doesn't quickly error out, like e.g.
Google wants to build up a private web here.
