We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
You can simulate pipeline type stuff with array reduce and unary functions.
What I really miss is built in currying/partial application, less verbose anonymous function syntax, and auto closures.

When you get used to writing JS and other FP stuff like (x,y)=> x + y and you can do (x) => (y) => x + y, it's really nice.
Pretty sure you can curry in PHP?
