Welcome to issue 232 of the HWN, an issue covering crowd-sourced bits
of information about Haskell from around the web. This issue covers the
week of June 10 to 16, 2012.
Quotes of the Week
* irene-knapp: ewtoombs: the universe is already an interactive
quantum physics simulator
* Philipp: "While in Python every problem can be solved with a big
enough Hashtable, in Haskell, every problem can be solved
with an additional type parameter."
* kulin: man, i am loving this existential quantification, i feel
like now i will use it incorrectly to solve every problem for sure
* mekeor: xmonad is awesome (ignore the ambiguity, please)
