(There had been times, when linguistics were still a major entry path into computing, where things were a bit different. Notably, this were also the times, which gave rise to most of the general paradigms. A certain amount of generality was even regarded a prerequisite to programming. Particularly, HN is such a great place, because it holds up this notion of generality.)
