Proof that engineers are not purely functional
Addendum: “It has come to our attention that sarcasm is actually the function’s output and the solution is only a side effect. We regret the error.”

Sarcasm is really required by thermodynamics, no? So it’s more an expression of efficiency than a side effect. Plus, if you feed sarcasm back into the system as an input, you can almost certainly improve overall efficiency. Debugging demos this nicely: i.e., inputs = coffee + snarkily-expressed-problem.
