You're in the wrong thread. :-) But to answer your question anyway, this is the responsible line of code: https://github.com/marekdlugos/TakeMeAsIntern/blob/master/as...

It's a combination of avoiding potential bugs and just modelling things differently altogether: If I had to leave out the answer type of questions, I'd have to come up with an enti…

My Magic: the Gathering implementation uses a few GADTs. Interestingly they use GADTs in very different ways. Source code is here: https://github.com/MedeaMelana/Magic/blob/master/…

If I remember correctly the automatically sorting through your pictures and picking the best is exactly what Google announced for Google+ at their last I/O keynote.

You don't really need to understand all these things in order to build "real" things with it. Just build something without caring too much whether an experienced Haskell programmer…

I wonder if this is also true if you are a foreigner visiting the US. And I wonder if this also works for the Dutch police.

What company in Portugal do you work for?

For some reason this reminds me of Quine Central[1]. :-) [1] http://blog.sigfpe.com/2011/01/quine-central.html

Not really. There's a really nice paper by Graham Hutton, "A tutorial on the universality and expressiveness of fold" which goes into a bit more depth than OP does. Your question i…

In Haskell variables are called variables because they potentially have a different value each time the function is called. See also Variable (mathematics) [1] vs. Variable (comput…

Can you tell us more about the book? Would you recommend it? Is it easily accessible?

Small nitpick, the type of forever is actually: forever :: Monad m => m a -> m b Since it never returns a value, the resulting monadic action can be polymorphic in its return type.…

Is the color->note map arbitrary or is there some logic behind it? I imagine it greatly affects the associations (including emotions) he has built up over the years.

Also: identity = Invertible id id

Don Stewart on undefined vs. null: http://stackoverflow.com/a/3963464/17439

http://www.evilmadscientist.com/ has lots more of this stuff if you are interested in it.

It was called SmackBook: http://blog.medallia.com/2006/05/smacbook_pro.html

If Braid is in your top three, I'm curious: what other games do you really like?

Is it just me or should the bullets and numbers of the lists be indented?

FF on Mac actually tries to do something clever here. It won't start scrolling the page itself until after a small delay or until you move the mouse.

At Q42, the company I work for, we have a yearly hackathon. We start Friday morning and then depending on individual circumstances work until anywhere from Friday night to Sunday n…

Warnings are to be expected if your goal is to make your program as short as possible.

I wonder if it matters whether people are using their trackpad. I was using mine and immediately figured it out; maybe it's because scrolling horizontally is trivial with a trackpa…
