The Haskell Alphabet
- shasta 16y agoOh joy, the Haskell propoganda machine has made it to Hacker News.
- jberryman 16y agoConsidering that don has been a member here for three years, and you for less than 100 days, maybe it's more accurate to say that the Haskell haters finally made it...?
- shasta 16y agoWell, I've been around for longer than that, but your point stands. I don't hate Haskell in the least and often enjoy "technology X in Haskell" articles. I now notice that dons was even the submitter of some articles I enjoyed. This particular submission I found irritating, though. The target audience would seem to be either someone deeply integrated into the Haskell community who might find this sort of thing cute or anyone with Haskell experience who is learning his alphabet. I notice this kind of article on reddit/r/programming, but don't usually notice it on teh front page here. Thus my comment.
- jberryman 16y ago> The target audience would seem to be either someone deeply integrated into the Haskell community who might find this sort of thing cute or anyone with Haskell experience who is learning his alphabet. Haha. Probably true :)
- gjm11 16y agoThe Y and Z entries are nice.
- abecedarius 16y agoHeh. Another programming-language ABC I put together about a decade ago: http://wry.me/~darius/writings/abecedarius.html http://wry.me/~darius/writings/abecedarius.html
- mahmud 16y agoHey it's Darius! :-) Younglings, gather around this man and help yourself to his stash. He knows how to have a good time: http://wry.me/~darius/ http://wry.me/~darius/ I can spend hours on that site and always be delighted. (totally off-topic, I know, but you don't need an occasion to appreciate the awesome! :-)
- abecedarius 16y agoAw, shucks, I'm flattered and pleased you liked it. I have to warn that all of that code has been unmaintained for years...
- mahmud 16y agounmaintained code (n): code that isn't in my editor now. :-)
