"If you've written a Haskell program that runs, it's highly likely to be a correct solution." having done a bit of work with haskell myself, i'd say it's even better for this for haskell programmers. if you're using type signatures and you

i meant it only somewhat sarcastically, as i did exactly that myself. in the "dotcom boom" i had moved from SF across the bay to go to school, and got recruited to a startup with an original product that took roughly 65% of US market share
