Heh, well they try to design them and think that they're doing it good,
but *something* always crops up.
That's me, that is... ;)

OK, I was expecting this sentence to contain the word "gadget". Damn it,
the 80s have ruined my brain! >_<

Episode 8 reminds me of an old R.K Milholland comic.
Google can't find the image anywhere, seems the only place it's still
viewable is his store. Oh well that will have to do.

Erlang has first-class functions as well as closures. Indeed, there are
warnings in the docs saying things like "take care if you store a
closure in a database that when you fetch it back out to run it, you're
running the same version of the interpreter." :-)

I think I'll have to find a good explanation of monads again. :-)

Ooo. So much for "you can upgrade stuff in-place without shutting down". :-P
[Mind you, persistent *closures*? That's got to be a fairly rarely used
feature...]
> I think I'll have to find a good explanation of monads again. :-)
The I/O monad is unusual as monads go, but essentially the I/O functions
return I/O command objects instead of actually *performing* I/O, and you
use the monad operators to join all those actions together until the
"main" function essentially returns a *gaint* I/O command object that
represents the operation of the entire program. [Obviously, containing
lots of closures!]
This is only the conceptual model; in practice the compiler actually
generates much the same code as a C compiler would. But it *does* mean
that an "I/O action" is first-class, just like a function is...
There are famously "two ways" to look at monads. You can look as a monad
as a kind of "container", or you can look at a monad as representing an
"action" that can have special effects. In the former case, it's
probably best to start by learning about the I/O monad. In the latter
case, the Maybe and list monads are probably an easier starting point...

Question: is "comelia" a word?
