I've looked this stuff up on Wikipedia before asking. There's too much information. A bit like your answer: Detail without explanation. It's like wading through descriptions of gear mechanisms before learning what a wristwatc

No, it is. And as other people have pointed out, it ships on more distros. https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009604499/utilities/se... It's "ed" which is de facto non-standard.

Asking what the word "operating system" means is like asking what money is. There isn't really a one true definition. "Operating systems" in a much narrow sense were invented in the 1950s. I cannot tell you what peo

Monads are (for better or worse) contagious. So when one function calls a monad, then it needs to be included in the monad as well. It makes introducing memoisation to a file, randomisation, and memoisation not-to-a-file (without using lazy

That's technically correct. But all real numbers in practice are computable.

It means "Too long; didn't read". The guidelines say: Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something.
