Haskell: My New Favorite Language

I discovered Haskell not long ago. I even wrote a bit about my initial impressions of it.

This is an amazing language. It’s been a long time since I’ve had this much fun programming. The Haskell community is also great; there are more geniuses there than anywhere I’ve seen before.

If you’re new to Haskell, try reading Haskell: The Craft of Functional Programming, 2nd Ed.. Or, if you want something online, try Yet Another Haskell Tutorial.

Tiny Laptops

I’m in the market for a small laptop. A very small laptop. And it has to be rugged.

The first one to make it to the top of my list was the iBook. Small, rugged, and good Linux support.

But then I noticed the Actius MM20. Only 2 pounds and 3/4″ thick. Wow. I’d buy it right away if it weren’t for the 20GB HDD. I’m hoping they’ll update that line soon.
