I wrote an explainer for monads because I think they are typically explained in a terrible way for the working programmer. Would love any feedback on this.

Thanks for posting this! I've started looking into the history of Postscript because I was looking into the idea of "sending a program not a data structure". Some thoughts so far: https://krishna.github.io/pos

I should have included the following information in the blog post (will update it later!): I usually have: - 45g of air popped popcorn (64 calories). - 5 to 10g of butter (37 - 74 calories). - couple of garlic cloves (10 cals).

The thing that's "holding back" the iPad isn't hardware. It's the economics of the App store. I'm sure Apple are very happy with the niche the iPad dominates in - it leaves plenty of room for Mac laptop sales.

Why be a "staunch <Company X> supporter" at all? It's one thing to admire the work/output of a company, but once you identify as a "Company X" supporter you are just closing yourself off to being critical
