Why do I find this so unsurprising? It seems rather obvious. Hence, I must be missing something.
I will put this in plain terms for the less enlightened Freepers:
Free Republic and Democrat Underground are really just two sides of the same coin. C++ is the other side.
It’s really quite simple.
I wish I had gone to college then maybe I could understand what this article is all about......
“Category theory has found broad and deep use in the world of statically-typed functional programming languages since as early as 1991, and Haskell has been using category-theoretic formalisms to structure programs since the late ‘90s. While I’d not yet classify this sort of usage as being mainstream, it’s hardly a new thing. Nonetheless, I think that the notion of using category theory to formalize the scientific method makes perfect sense; indeed, as my colleague @alissapajer’s talk at the Strange Loop 2013 programming conference indicates, category theory is “An Abstraction For Everything.” nuttycom May. 20, 2013 at 1:13pm”

UPDATE 1-Regeneron, Sanofi asthma drug seen as potential game changer. Comment# 10 is an example of how to use PubMed for the relation between asthma and magnesium deficiency. There are also two FReebies in comment# 1 for those with an interest in asthma and this new monoclonal antibody.
FReepmail me if you want on or off my health and science ping list.
Bump. (That is the extent of my understanding of the article).
Feynman diagrams would be analogous.
