boy sounds somewhat like Turkic bala/bola ("a boy").

Well it may have effect on ergonomics. Some people claim they cannot use 60Hz monitor after trying 144hz.

Yeah, he said it is a flatulence circle.

Every time I hear Rust, I recall True Detective (Rustin Cohle).

You do not need to school me about why "for" is not pure functional - as soon as you understand that it is syntactic sugar, you are fine; IO is also impure, so if you insisting in purity then the only option is Haskell.

If you want to be pedantic, in functional programming there is no such a thing as "return value", as there is no such a thing as statement, only expressions. And expressions always _have_ values, they do not _return_ them.

I agree that SML is better for teaching than OCaml no doubt about it.

I mean, it is pointless to continue this conversation; you did not use SML for a long time - I did use it last time last year, and I can attest, it is extremely impractical compared to any other FP language today.

No SML is more verbose, is pretty obvious. A simple "for" in ocaml could save lots boilerplate doing trivial recurison.

I have personally obtained unmesurable amount of relevant info from twitter; lots of true experts in every area in real time. Blogs were more like reading a published magazine article - for something not time sensitive.

1. It was USSR, not Russia. For many who were USSR citizen till 1991, but neither ethnically or geographically Russians, this rubs very wrong way.

2. Aviation in the USSR was developing completely independent, and you can accuse USSR in stealing technology in many areas but certainly not in aviation.

You SML code is incorrect, shows that you actually never coded anything in SML. SML requires that "if" always contains "else" clause (which is the norm for many functional languages). And this kind of stuff which makes SML unnecessarily verbose (OCaml has for operators, single line let definitions that do not require you to make use val and fun for different type definitions etc.).

The problem that is extremely verbose though. OCaml is much more concise.

No, SML is actually quite verbose ang generally ugly, compared to say OCaml or F#, or even Scheme or Closure. This is why it is dead.

What kind of UB the author is talikng about?

Still using my Sansa.

Love the Cobblestoned Walts.

Focus on Eyesafe monitors, esp. with Innolux panels. (such as all 28 inch 4k monitros).

Much less to me. Due to more wide spectrum esp in blue area.
