Paul Resnick: "A report issued last week shows that Internet users have more exposure to political arguments than non-users, and even have more exposure to arguments that challenge the positions they hold."Predicate dispatch is circling thru the more programming-language oriented websites recently, and it is indeed an interesting concept. Generalising type-based dispatching and pattern-matching, a predicate function is used to determine function applicability.
