Interesting series of blog posts on combinators
- gommm 18y agoI hadn't seen what raganwald was up to since he stopped writing at his blog... Turns out he's still hacking in Ruby and writing interesting articles :-)
- blasdel 18y agoI really love raganwald's writing and code, but something about his series on Smullyan's combinator birds is unsettling to me. It's like _why's writing in that it is fanciful, but without the sustained authorial whimsy. I think it might be because Reg is not the original source of the oddness, he's performing it for a new audience. I applaud his efforts, however unnerving, he's at the wild frontier of technical writing!
