Ask HN: Reviews for “A Type of Programming” eBook
See: https://atypeofprogramming.com
I've been waiting to pay for this until I can find reviews of it. Given the recent completion of Chapter 200(!) I was hoping to hear if HN had any early thoughts.

- pkilgore 7y agoDo you retweet the critical reviews too ?
- chouzar 7y agoLove the book pace, seems perfectly suitable for newcomers and super entertaining for experienced programmers, the subtext is amazing :D
- pkilgore 7y agoYou signed up for HN to tell me this?
- darksniper87 7y agoIt's really an amazing book. I am not overreacting here. Explaining how Types work to non-programmers is really challenging but the author, with an enjoyable story pace and nice examples, he manage to do that with great success.

- darksniper87 7y agoYeap because I really love your work. This book should be the foundation for people that want to dive into typed-programming.
- AnthonBerg 7y agoI love this book. It’s beautiful. It reads like Kurt Vonnegut talking about thought and thinking, and you can’t help but learn programming, almost coincidentally as Haskell. I like it so much that I’ve given it as a gift to multiple people.
- pkilgore 7y agoThank you!
