Today, the internet can't compete with face to face communication. Even with Skype etc. I think this is the reason rather than keeping tabs on the work you are doing. This may change in the future of course if we can get VR to a real l

Hardly. Betteridge's Law requires the answer to be a definite "no". E.g. "Is SpaceX planning to put a dog on Pluto?"

I like the emoji makes it fun. There just isn't enough emotions. Intense happiness, anger, boredom etc but nothing less extreme.

Upvotes help get great comments near the top of the page. It is not perfect but better than simply being in time order and a great comment getting lost in the middle. Downvotes mean you can get bad comments towards the bottom. So that is go

Yeah the IO monad will, but it isn't generally true of monads. Infant the maybe monad Will cease early on Nothing by design. So it is a brain shift.

An analogy to that is that OO doesn't embrace IO. Yet weirdly enough that makes OO-IO better than older languages that have built in commands to write to disk. Haskell doesn't have state but you have multiple models to choose fro

Failure to grok Haskell is probably due to the lack of easy accessible literature on it. Plus with so few other people groking it there isn't as much osmosis available.
