monads were certainly a clever fix for the difficulties otherwise caused by passing around the world as a value. I might argue that laziness makes haskell something different than purely applicative. It's not just pure values being pas

side effects are quite the thorn in this theories side. hard to describe message passing in purely applicative terms.

that would probably depend on how much power it takes to send the messages, how much actual usable bandwidth you could manage over the distances involved, and how much data you want to send. if it takes a large amount of energy to send the

there's a lot of interesting problems just in the networking. if it took four years for a message to cross the void from where you are to the recipient, you certainly wouldn't want to wait a full eight years to see they didn'

It is considered incorrect, but it also sounds nice and forms a part of a growing number of terms being pluralized using -i, radiating out from cacti, it seems. I expect this trend will continue.

Payment processors banning companies from using them for anything other than illegal use or fraud issues seems like pretty egregious overreach to me. They shouldn't be able to leverage their nigh monopoly on modern payment processing t

don't plan on it staying that way. I used to toss wads of my own forth-like language into LLMs to see what kinds of horrible failure modes the latest model would have in parsing and generating such code. at first they were hilariously

I wrote a tar parser long ago while playing at parsing various formats and filesystems. The only thing I really remember about the format is the thing stores sizes formatted as octal in ascii strings.

yeah, traditionally 'generated code' is really just 'decompressed code'. it's got some source of information that's either brought in or crafted to be easily read and modified by people, and a transformer to ex
