As a sidenote, Stephen is also the author/maintainer of "What I Wish I Knew When I Was Learning Haskell"[0] which is a great resource both for those who are learning and for slightly advanced programmers.

- JasonFruit 12y agoYour comment implies that programmers stop learning once they are slightly advanced.
- psykotic 12y agoNo, it doesn't imply that, at all. My least favorite thing on the Internet nowadays are shallow fault-finding comments like yours from people who just want to interject themselves into discussions where they have nothing substantive to say. I used to be that guy and still have to actively resist the temptation. Don't be that guy.
- JasonFruit 12y agoOh, man — not being that guy, at least in the fault-finding sense; just apparently failing to make an obvious joke. Very strictly, grammatically speaking, it does say that, and it was a humorous implication to me, since I have known so many programmers who apparently did stop learning once they were very slightly advanced. But I'm completely aware that the implication was accidental.
- juliangregorian 12y agoNo, it actually doesn't even say that; in no way does it preclude the existence of a third group. Not only are you unfunny, you fail logic.
