The truth is that you can't learn anything useful in an hour unless you don't know really, really basic things about life.

- Jeff_Brown 7y agoI disagree. I learned the basics of the Variant library (which provides open sum types) for Haskell yesterday in about 90 minutes. It was awesome.
- throw1234651234 7y agoBecause you already knew Haskell and you knew what open sum types are. You learned some semantics.
- Jeff_Brown 7y agoAll true. I would only add that learning "mere semantics" in many cases allows you to use a powerful new tool.
