That was a great read - thanks for linking. I had trouble with the one class in uni that used Haskell and I've been working in a Python shop for some years now, so I kept expecting to encounter some impenetrable section that would make my eyes glaze over and my hand close the tab. I was probably closest around page 9! But the writing was excellent, and clear, and satisfying, and little concepts I was so close grokking kept catching my eye and pulling me back in until I understood them, then their neighbors, then the section, then I was done. Guess I've picked up some things since college. Wish I could go back and take that class again. I think learning to use Rust's Option type in anger on a personal project helped me understand monads more than anything in that class. Also, I'm happy to see the method described by the paper does seem to have become the official GHC build system [0]. 0. https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/wikis/building/hadrian |
