    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 …

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

    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 devel…

    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 language…

    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.

    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.

    This crude advice, which is not always effiecient. I have sensitive eyes, and many monitors cause issues even when they are set _at_ _zero_ brightness. The both feel too dim and to…

    It is a typical advice which is efficient but flawed. All software methods to change color temperature suffer from two problems: they kill contrast (already low for IPS), and they …

    Not below their factory defined minimum. Which is all over of place, except for Dell and HP, which around 40 nits minimal brightness.

    Color temperature of the backlight LEDs have nothing to do with width of the gamut of the monitor. What matters is how narrow are spectral peaks of the primaries. You can easily ha…
