I really, really want to see Carmack's Haskell. That would be a super fun read.

I just like thinking about how the snakes that survive will be a member of at least one of two groups: * those that don't eat mice. * those that are better at processing acetaminophen. Also - what of the other scavenging anim

Right? Inequality in the workplace will be squashed just like it will everywhere else - with people being awesome to each other. It probably won't happen because of those people refusing to acknowledge differences. Saying 'him&#x2

Some of his essay is meant to be funny and I think some people are missing that. It's an interesting critique in the relationship between programmers and management. Just try to enjoy it.

This would not be Communism. We shouldn't be arguing Comminism vs Capitalism because both are extremes that have never been fully realized. This is more about compassion vs group association - a typically American Democrat/Republi

I don't think at the time he was trying to be clever. If you watch the talk you'll see it makes a lot of sense to make this statement in its context. Also - Haskell will either be very popular or not, based on its merits in indust

GUIs in haskell are currently a hot topic. Some of the older libraries like wxHaskell are a bit behind the times and need updating and the newer ones are very new and need vetting. If you're interested I'd check out threepenny-gui

I think the effectiveness of guessing what the function does by its parameters' types and its return type depends on whether or not the function performs side effects. That said, if it doesn't, or can't (even better), then th

One could argue that this would affect any number of technological subjects. From the obvious 'no oceans, no life, no technology' to the subtle change in stocks due to the report that the article is covering.

It's sad to me that this is not the top post. It seems that fact is a reflection of the problem at hand. We don't care about the oceans as much as we care about Twitter. :(

Maybe? I don't tend to read about iOS vs Android often. I'd say that's a problem for any company that maintains an app store. I'm sure those inconsistencies exist on iOS6 as well :(

Many of the problems with consistency (capitalization, placement, return key on keyboard, etc) seem to be in specific apps. In those cases it's the designers and programmers of the company that make the app that are at fault. It's

Petaluma is an awesome place and it has a fair share of tech culture. Bias, TwitVid and a number of agencies are all westside downtown locals. Housing on the westside is getting more competitive though. Nothing like SF I'm sure but dif

sprint.ly has a nice experience. You could probably glean a few tricks from their flow.

Awesome - once it's got some hooks for resolving tickets by commit messages I'm all in :) Nice work.

Good job! I haven't yet seen git integration - does it have it and I'm just missing it?

I definitely agree. Vim was much more confusing for me while still a beginner, partly because I started with first the spf-13 distro and then haskim, a haskell-focused distro. I didn't really start grasping how things worked until buil

In fish it's simple enough to start typing the command you want and then hit arrow right to autocomplete. If you have a couple often commands that start the same way just arrow up or down to cycle through them, then arrow right to put

That could be true. I know I have a pretty heavy case of imposter syndrome, but in times of my own egomania I like to think that it's actually just the other side of the Dunning-Kruger effect. As long as it isn't debilitatingly se

verisimilidude touched on a couple of these points already but apart from training your mind to not worry about pain you can also train it to type in Dvorak. I went even a little further and bought a $30 datahand keyboard (a really, really

I think the first paragraph of the page linked explains why that code is so impenetrable. You will not have to read or write Haskell like that, ever. Good find though! On a similar note, the Haskell community is amazing. You can learn absol
