recurse day 4; in which I shed societal expectations around haskell
20 Feb 2020
Like 20 other people in my batch, I thought I wanted to learn Haskell on the first day of RC, mostly because all the cool kids are doing it.
After attending a single Haskell study group, it became breathtakingly clear that I’m not actually interested in learning Haskell, although I do respect it even more now. It was a very valuable hour.
(Clojure, on the other hand, I’m still interested in…)
