Welcome to issue 242 of the HWN, an issue covering crowd-sourced bits of information about Haskell from around the web. This issue covers the week of August 19 to 25, 2012.
Quotes of the Week
- srhb: I think that's going into space rather than diving into the deep end.
- edwardk: normally i don't bother with little things like "documentation", "benchmarks" and "tests", but I recently discovered that when I do, I get these curious things called "users".
- shachaf: "Number of comonads released by edwardk will exceed the number of words in the English language by 2015, experts report."
