Welcome to issue 297 of the HWN, an issue covering crowd-sourced bits
of information about Haskell from around the web. This issue covers
from June 8 to 14, 2014
Quotes of the Week
* dpwright: this afternoon I've literally taken an entire (portrait)
screen's worth of code and reduced it to about three lines and a
few lens operators
* tommd: Haskell is a great language. I needed to test a program
under high CPU load, so to burn some cycles I cabal-installed lens.
Is there anything Haskell can't do?
* bernalex: I imagine hell as a place where spj & edwardk are holding
talks at the same time and I have to choose.
