If you give me your background I'll explain in longer terms but in short it's about making the intent clear and anyone who understands s modicum of PL theory understands why what's a constant is so and what's a function is so.

I'm excited for this conversation. If you see someone respond to a developer ergonomics complaint with "If you give me your background I'll explain in longer terms... anyone who understands s modicum of PL theory" you're about to see some legendary bullshit.

It's like witnessing a meteor shower!

I'm a programmer. I'm a human. Perhaps we should also allow for some "human theory" inside our understanding.
