Subtyping, the golden key
from Iowa Type Theory Commute Hosted by Aaron Stump
In this episode, I wax rhapsodic for the potential of subtyping to improve the practice of pure functional programming, in particular by allowing functional programmers to drop various irritating function calls that are needed just to make types work out. Examples are lifting functions with monad transformers, or even just the pure/return functions for applicative functors/monads.
