An accessible introduction to the infamous Par operator, with a focus on intuition. Notably, this is on the broader concept of multiplicative disjunction, which appears even outsid…

Alternative title: Par and Constructive Classical Logic. I've finally rounded out the Par trilogy, on sequent calculus, linear logic, and continuations! This post was the point of …

A new guide on linear logic! Much deeper than the usual "imagine a vending machine" guide, though I do mention the connection to that at the end lol. This is great for getting an i…
