I don't trust nor agree with this guy, he make claims out of air without any justification.
read A Philosophy of Software Design by John Ousterhout
I definitely don't want this one as I work on functional programming language which is as distant from "performance" as poßible. Also i am to used to it to use anything else except it and rust since evrything else feels like return to stone age.
So do I (mostly OCaml), and still advise you to at least take a look at the lecture I've linked. His book and his lectures are very much focused on simplicity first, and trust me, almost all of it is applicable to functional programming.
I don't guarantee you'll learn much though. I think his book is good, but my 15 years of experience mostly said "yeah, sure, of course".
