Personally I had so many issues using Haskell libs on Windows that I gave up on the language. I've documented the details of my complaint here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5615516

I've got the right level of understanding of Git to grok this article. I really liked how you talked about cherry picking before you talked about rebaseing. I'd like to request you include a section on why/when you need the

Nice. When will there be a grunt plugin for it? I'm using the qunit plugin right now and I notice that it's 10x slower to run than viewing it in the browser. This 10 second feedback loop is driving me crazy.

It's not just OSX, it's a problem (in general) on windows, too. I was trying to create my first haskell project as a web crawler. Every direction I turned I had issues installing libraries to the point where I decided it's

> I can write conditionals (if System Prop X then include dependency Y). I stand corrected. That would be extremely useful. Maven is really awkard about these things. EG: "I want to run integration tests but not unit tests".

That pluggable type system looks amazing. One thing that's weird to me is how java included a new Optional type (seems similar to Haskell's Maybe), but the compiler (afaik) doesn't prevent you from setting an Optional field

Yet, I'm always surprised in how good the official javadoc is at avoiding this problem. They always have a @return and it's usually saying something useful. I think there's two situations: 1) You're writing javadoc for

Your complaints seem like a very indirect way to get what you want. Perhaps it's git's fault for making these possibilities, but I didn't even know they exist. If you want to revert/reset a file, why don't you just

This article is "OK". I wish it was ordered differently. My complaint is it spends wayyy too much time on heuristics (2nd page) before it discusses the implementation (3rd page). I think it's important to get an overall ide

Why would you urge that? Seems like it depends on what you want to do with your skills. If you want to make an app, you should follow the money. If you want to get a job, you should follow the demand for developers.

They're not very different but I use lodash instead of underscore. Is this "six of one and half a dozen of the other", or is there good reason to stick with underscore?

I wish your blog post picture showed us the stack trace tab. With the screenshot you used, I don't see how that could help me debug my typical client-side error. What I usually need is a stack trace.
