Aside from having to run a short command line program to get an stdout/stderr from; I have never had to use processes. It has always been simple threads. Why and when would I want to spawn a process instead?

You still have to reduce the entire state no? I would imagine it to be something like: struct A { b : B } impl Reducer<Action> for A {} impl Reducer<Action> for B {} Now the reducer logic is spread out across the state. Sure, e

Why haven't Python replaced Make? Its cross-platform and can do pretty much any horrible monstrosities that people do in make and cmake.

I can literally say this about you. Not myself obviously, because I know that _I_ exists. However, I have no way of telling that anyone else is. What is different here? The brain is just a bunch of neurons innit? And I don't believe th

Disagree. The problem with emoji is that it relies on the "font" used too heavily. What's worse is that these "fonts" are controlled by the device that you use. My prime example of this is the skull emoji, imagine s

yes because the set of possible inputs for A -> C is basically infinite. But min(A,B)=C is only 2^64^2. Why shouldn't you test for string, object, object of object, object with a certain kind of shape, or Number class as opposed to

It tests at compile time that some function f takes A and returns B. That covers 99% of all possible input/output which you technically have to do in an untyped language. How do you make sure your function that takes an `any` doesn&#x2

I never quite understood the point of redesign. The only reason I can think of is marketing. Other than that, it's always, always a big mess. Why does everything need to be freaking round which makes it very ugly in low resolutions?
