He's also joked about making strict/eager (non-lazy) eval the default. I think the heart of the joke is that learning haskell (and all the GHC extensions) involves a lot of staring at error messages, type signatures and the rest of hte cod

Yah, maybe just add links at bottom: LYAH, Applicative Functor wiki page. Or maybe mention one syntax feature, IO's and do-blocks, and say "return" and "<-" just kick things into and out of IO's, loosely speaking. Just don't say IO's a

You shouldn’t need to know Haskell. Don’t pay attention to all the syntax. If you are curious you can take a look at Applicative Functor. This is a nice, whirlwind tour, maybe the opening benchmarks and jab at node ar
