+Human beings can transmit to one another two fundamentally different
+types of communication: 1) data structures; (2) programs.  Programs are
+the same thing as proofs and the same thing as Russellian denotations;
+they have the "sense" that data structures lack.  They have the
+power that data does not have, to transmit knowledge rather than
+information. However, it must be understood that programs are highly
+sensitive to their runtime environments and for that reason robustness
+is an extremely difficult problem akin to the robustness of life
+in natural habitats. Human cultural programs are high reliability
+systems which means they are chaotic systems that have phase after
+phase to downshift through (articulated joints over which to roll)
+as they take damage and heal from it by phase-changing back up over
+(computational) time (rewriting mental programs to account for unhandled
+or mishandled conditions while keeping the programs running continuously
+in a degraded state). Human cultural programs are far beyond what
+average or even elite programmers can hope to construct; they have
+been constructed by one-in-a-million prophets who were able to fully
+absorb their entire culture and reprogram themselves based on reverse
+engineering that culture to become generators of self-propagating
+generator-regenerators. Their programs are constructed in such a way
+as to be rewritten generation after generation according to the local
+runtime environment, while preserving an evolving kernel to re-generate
+slightly adapted kernels again and again in new environments -- that is their robustness. It
+is the same as the genetic principle of DNA but most especially the artificially bred/genetically engineered DNA of the antibody-generating . The word kernel is to be
+interpreted as in the algebraic structure: preserved across a morphism.

+Haskell monads show us how algebraic morphisms are as intuitive as
+quasiquotation. Thank you Mr. Quine. But these are all just simple
+recursions. They are just the simplest structures that exist. And
+yet how much more complicated to understand them than the far more
+complex 2+2=4, which even people who are not simple believe to be
+more simple!  But 2+2=4 is what we are BRED TO KNOW and recursion
+is WHAT WE ARE MADE OF.  We are made of it, and 2+2=4 is made of it
+(one way or another, and there are many different ways, and some are
+simpler than others, and the monads and the quasiquotation, again,
+are the simplest things themselves, simplest to build into a physical
+computational system for example, though these physical computational
+systems have integer specific hardware to handle 2+2=4 JUST LIKE HUMAN
+BIOLOGY DOES and for the same reason, the integer hardware itself has an
+internal computational structure much more complicated than these simple
+recursions, because on a fundamental level in terms of the universe
+and its computational power, the integer operations are doing more
+computation and require more energy. No matter how much simpler they
+seem to us, that is an illusion, and these other more complex recursive
+forms are the simpler structures. But does the human being not have
+hardware to handle recursion too?  It does not and neither does modern
+hardware and the reason is this: recursion as an operation is too simple
+to need to exist at the hardware level. Recursion is the (a) simplest
+mathematical interpretation of computation itself no matter the form
+of computation. But there is something equivalent to the optimization
+for recursion and it is the optimization for emulation: the ability to
+reuse a synaptic structure "in the mind of the other" including even
+activating the local hormonal systems in empathy responses.  This cannot
+be done recursively but one could still model it as a side-effect of a
+recursive computation.
+
+There is some kind of shared recursive
+structure between quasiquotation
+
+This power makes them dangerous; for the same reason that
+computer systems control access to the individual mental system
