this is so interesting. it’s not the first nor the last time wish that communities would not refrain from changing terminology. fitness is as important as accuracy and we shouldn’t be wary of dropping such inaccuracies, especially when they

Unsubstantive, sure, I agree, but I don’t see how expressing a sentiment of disbelief and suspicion of trolling (or however it may be called) this way is “flamebait”.

you apply another monoid operation. one possible one is to return first or last element. makes sense in layered configuration of, for example, a text editor, where you might override a colour. another possible one is to return error on dupl

abstraction for abstraction’s sake? pure abstraction? abstracted abstraction?

so many people are enchanted by quick results.. it’s the same psychology as that of enchantment by LLMs.. and they exert the same pull as tiktok reels. you get results, who cares when they have no correctness tying them together.
