Actually, no program would run without IO. The semantics are that ONLY what's in the IO monad gets evaluated in the first place.

I needed to learn that others are interesting even though they have nothing to say about what's on my mind right now. From that came everything else.

People should see the "Bite of China" series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRHNa9qdtlw It contains plenty of examples of amazing craftsmanship.

Tampopo is excellent. You must watch it. And I must watch it again.

Use: refactoring! I imagine: You have an actor A13 that communicates with actor A2. The guarantee allows you to break up A13 into the two actors A1 and A3 that now both communicate with A2 and be done with it. In erlang, you might not'

IIRC, the Show class is supposed to be the reverse of the Read class -- so you should not use it to pretty print stuff.

My mother used to be a primary school teacher; she has the habit when reading carefully (correcting homework) to read while dragging a ruler over the paper in order to occlude the next line.

If I remember Bjarne's talk correctly, vectors (in C++) are even fast at inserting because they have densely packed representation which rhymes well with modern computer architecture. Inserting in a linked list is slow, as walking the

AFAICT, this performance bug is not at all related to the linked-list vs. vector issue.

Both monads and monoids: The only thing you need to learn about them is practice. Screw tutorials and books. Read LYAH's intro chapter once (you won't understand everything, but that's fine) and then write code.

ECOOP may be a good place to look. IIRC last year at ECOOP there was some work by or with Laurence Tratt.

But it accesses the global variables in way that is functional.. I.e does not overwrite memory that other variables have references to and such. Anyway, it is -- to me -- a superficial difference, but I think it causes this disagreement abo

You make a claim here but don't back it up. I think that a functional program, compiled to native code is STILL a functional program. You seem to not think that. Edit: If so, why? Edit 2: Oh, maybe your point is that FP is statically t

I wish that none were written this way: Using a sample size of 4, the paper proposes some layer model. Already the first language (erlang) does not correspond to this model, yet the model will later be concluded to be the way to go: "A

Oh, interesting. However, I'm disappointed to not find a comment on timing critical systems. IMO, these systems favour imperative programming models with explicit or ownership-based (C, rust, C++) memory management. > This conﬁrms t
