I mean, Tony tries to edge into the Haskell community and gets rebuffed. He simply can't neg the people there, they're too busy actually producing novel results rather than talking about them.
- haskellandchill 9y agoSome Haskellers love Tony. I'm one of them.
- KirinDave 9y agoTo be fair to him, Tony is much more well behaved in the Haskell community because he doesn't seem to feel the license to run roughshod over everyone there. Anyone who says his behavior hasn't been troublesome in #scala at times over the last 5 years isn't paying attention. I still remember my first run in with him where he demanded I take a "test" to let him "grade" me. In the middle of a larger conversation about a sbt bug.
- lmm 9y agoYeah, I meant to say any language community at a similar maturity level - he was there in the early days of Scala and wrote a foundational library that continues to be extremely widely used, which creates quite a different dynamic.
