G'day all. Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Perhaps another example is more relevant, the tradeoffs space-time in the "optimized" version of the powerset generator...
Yeah, I was going to bring up that topic. I've been lazy programming for 15 or so years, and the only "bugs" that I can think of are: 1. Indirect "black holes" that are not expressible in a strict language. You generally have to be doing something bizarre for this to occur, and it doesn't take too long before you can accurately predict when they constitute a likely risk. 2. Space leaks. This is the one thing that really bites hard, because a space leak is a global property of a lazy program, and hence can't be reasoned about locally.
