Welcome to issue 313 of the HWN, an issue covering crowd-sourced bits
of information about Haskell from around the web. This issue covers
from November 16 to December 6, 2014
Quotes of the Week
* Dijkstra: How do we convince people that in programming simplicity
and clarity (in short: what mathematicians call "elegance") are not
a dispensable luxury, but a crucial matter that decides between
success and failure?
* Dijkstra: Simplicity is a great virtue but it requires hard work to
achieve it and education to appreciate it. And to make matters
worse: complexity sells better.
* monochrom: those who have learned from history are bound to
helplessly watch other people repeat it.
