When I have to compile your program which uses that oh-so-useful Boost library, I curse you to the skies.

The article is almost unreadable due to the many grammatical errors contained within. It's a shame too, for such an important story.

An alternative solution: I'm thick! It's consistent with the evidence.

I challenge both of those assertions. I haven't done LYAH, because I was learning haskell before it existed, but I did nearly every available haskell tutorial when I was learning. As soon as you step out of bounds, you find strange corners

I'm not trying to complain! I'm just saying that the type system is A Thing that people need to learn, and I think that a rigorous type system can be a hindrance to learners. As such, I think Wadler should have mentioned it as a possible do

I have no idea! I was just solving SICP problems, so part of the issue for me was that, once the program worked, I was done. I had to do the hard part, but not really gain the benefits of the type system.

As others have mentioned, it's really a critique of their choice of Scheme rather than Miranda (a proto-Haskell). As somebody who did most of the first chapter in both Haskell and Scheme, I think it's crazy for Wadler to not mention the dow

I got up to exercise 1.18 in Haskell, and didn't have any problems with it. I knew very little haskell when I did it; I know less now. Doing the exercises in both Scheme and Haskell was a fun exercise; I should go back to it at some point.

Why would you be so combative? Wouldn't you grant the interviewer the benefit of the doubt and describe the most recent three things you can talk about? Is the question somehow offensive?

That's fair, I was just refuting what your comment implied, that it was an unethical action. (I understand that you may not have intended to imply it. Just wanted to put that out there.) So since we don't disagree on that: Do you think what

It is not impossible to imagine a code of morality which views his alleged actions as ethical.

Frankly, I think you're out of your mind. You should hire people based on absolutely as much useful information as you can ethically get your hands on. Why waste the information in a person's github profile? Resumes suck, and are damned nea

Everybody knows that 73.2% of all statistics are made up on the spot, but I'm not sure that people know 97% of the rest don't measure anything useful.

I often go read code to figure out how somebody else does something I want to do. Usually, somebody has solved your problem better than you have.

They can't overlap! I don't think the problem specifies that? You have to interpret "break up" to mean "non-overlapping" to claim that the problem means what you're saying it means; I found 341 "contiguous subsequences such that the sums of

My answers in 31 lines of code: https://gist.github.com/1025860 I am either misreading the third problem's description, or I have a bug I can't for the life of me see, because the answer my program puts out is not accepted.

A minor nit, I know, but a bell curve is symmetrical. So the graph shows some sort of fat-tailed distribution, and we cannot "see a textbook example of a bell distribution curve".
