What it does
An exercise-driven Haskell book for beginners that works for non-programmers and experienced hackers alike.
Perhaps you are coming to this book frustrated by previous attempts to learn Haskell . Perhaps you have only the faintest notion of what Haskell is. Perhaps you were just looking for the 18 billionth* monad tutorial , certain that this time around you will understand monads once and for all. Whatever your situation - it is our goal to make Haskell as clear, painless, and practical as we can , no matter what prior experiences you're bringing to the table. We're also offering two days of commercial Haskell training right before Lambda Conf so you can get stronk before soaking in buckets of rehydrated lambdas! We're also sponsoring Lambda Conf's childcare program so that the conference is more…from haskellbook.com

The book page links to a blog post that explains how I got about it (and has a link to sample content), but the TL&DR is that I could not find a lot of books that were on "our" history _and_ were larded with technical details. So I set about writing one, and some five years later I'm happy to share the result. I think it's one of the few "computer history" books that has tons of code, but correct me if I'm wrong (I wrote this both to tell a story and to learn :-)). My favorite languages are Smalltalk and Lisp, but as an Emacs user, I've been using the latter for much longer and for my…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
