In Haskell, there are no side effects . Any effects you care about will explicitly be part of the type. Haskell provides many combinators to combine various combinations of effectful and effect-free functions. Look into the documentation f

Here is a parallel map in Haskell pmap f xs = map f xs `using` parList rdeepseq The cool thing about this is that `map` is just the regular map function. However, as Haskell is lazy, `map f xs` returns a thunk and is not immediatel

Interesting idea, but it essentially requires users to build up a significant online presence to be trusted. Many people do not have the time to do this, and some just value their anonymity. How would this work for those users?

You achieve absolutely nothing with your casual dismissal and sarcasm. The fact that you have not made a single counterargument to any of my points betrays a lot.

I use tmux and vim-slime for that. It works pretty well.

Close but no cigar. I use Vimperator! With that, tmux, xmonad and vim I rarely if ever have to use the mouse.

Yes, all of this can be achieved using plugins, including immediate visibility of tabs and project structure. Check out powerline( https://github.com/powerline/powerline ) or vim-airline( https://github.com

Ah, the editor wars resume once again. Emacs is a good Elisp environment. Evil-mode turns it into a good editor :P

I agree that the website it poorly designed, but you can download Elementary OS for free. Just enter 0 in the "Custom Amount" box. > I dug into the blog a bit and all I can tell is that it's Ubuntu with some Gnome skins.
