Welcome to issue 260 of the HWN, an issue covering crowd-sourced bits
of information about Haskell from around the web. This issue covers the
week of February 17 to 23, 2013.
Quotes of the Week
* danharaj: zygohistobfuscatory maintainomorphism
* merijn: after a week you can delete 80% of your code and replace it
with whatever edwardk wrote that day ;-)
* merijn: If Oleg is the unit of type hackery I propose Edward as the
unit of haskell productivity.
* edwardk: the merijn is the unit for the number of distinct units
you've named
* elliott: If you encounter an edwardk in the wild: nod reassuringly
when he talks about something you understand. Under NO
circumstances EVER give your GitHub account name
