Why HN links it
Posts on software architecture, mainly the Onion Architecture series on layering LoB applications, plus IoC and containers. Commenters link the onion posts when discussing where the database belongs.

What Hacker News says?
Unrelated to functional programming there is Onion Architecture defined by Jeffrey Palermo in 2008 which I find a very nice and simple way to architect/organize a LoB application. http://jeffreypalermo.com/blog/the-onion-architecture-part-1... http://jeffreypalermo.com/blog/the-onion-architecture-part-2... http://jeffreypalermo.com/blog/the-onion-architecture-part-3... http://jeffreypalermo.com/blog/onion-architectu…

HN discussionFirst of all, the author doesn't hate IoC and Containers, he hates XML registration (with good reason). I can't say anything about Java, but in C#, when you use modern IoC frameworks like StructureMap and AutoFac, all registration of components takes place in code, using generics and lambdas. This allows you to easily wrap your services in interfaces, de-coupling code and making things much more testable, especially…
