My opinion: If you support free market companies, you should not tell them how to hire (put quotas like the one now mandated in the EU). A govt can put quotas on it's own organizations. Sure. No problem there, as it is not a market-for

Exactly. This is really nastly. The good guys "win", but the bad guys made money off the good guys and they are not even required to pay them the profits... This is a win for crony capitalist practices in software, signalling: don

Still it does not always work. On faux webshops you can be tricked into making a fund transfer, while you think you are paying for goods. This is a common scam as chargebacks do not work on fund transfers! Actually following the papertrail

Yes. Because it's hard to remove things from the stdlib. More languages suffer from that. What's nice is that the Haskell community offers several alternative Preludes; mostly fixing the problem you describe. Hence I find the exam
