| 2026-01-23 00:23:28 +0100 | <geekosaur> | I think tht usually means without _explicit_ recursion, e.g. using folds/traverses |

| 2026-01-23 01:10:11 +0100 | <EvanR> | the answer the question, certain patterns of recursion can be encapulsated in combinators that magically have the same effect |

| 2026-01-23 01:10:31 +0100 | <EvanR> | e.g. map and fold |
| 2026-01-23 01:10:42 +0100 | <EvanR> | they can't do everything, but the more such tools you have the more you can do |
| 2026-01-23 01:10:58 +0100 | <EvanR> | but sometimes explicit recursion makes more sense |

| 2026-01-23 02:09:57 +0100 | <EvanR> | clearly systemfault is answering in such a way intentionally to highlight the irony |
| 2026-01-23 02:10:53 +0100 | <EvanR> | this is what it's like in the tiplerian omega point simulation where everyone already knows everything anyone could talk about |
