The ones Karmack talks about. Several "concepts"(functions in this case) with implicit relationships (like what calls what, and in what order) are (sometimes) more difficult to process for a human brain than a huge block of sequential code.



Oh, ok. Thanks. I guess that's why we try to avoid unnecessary naming in Haskell, and if we can, just chain our functions like eg

   bigFunction = someFunction callBack . otherFunction arg1 callBack2
