Have you found anything that makes everyone happy and productive?

I sometimes wonder if we'll replace traditional design patterns, especially OOP, with new patterns, that are neither OOP or FP, but perhaps a different paradigm (e.g. how Prolog is wildly different from C++).

Not really. It's kind of a constant push-pull and a lot of compromises. In the end it's just about getting things done and dealing with the friction in stride when it comes.

I've often wondered what it would be like working at a workplace where everyone programs with the same mental models, but have never worked at such a place myself and I'm not even sure it's possible.
