@ooobject@dsymetweets Hmm I don't know if that's common usage yet but I think it's useful to help disambiguate what different people mean when they say MVU and that there are important philosophical differences in implementation.
@dsymetweets This is probably one of the most nuanced takes on this. It's good for MVU to be given some spotlight but also important to acknowledge that the mutability means that its fundamentally a compromise to the approach.
@vamchale Haskell is great, however don't you think it's at least a little suspicious that F# scored 5-10x slower than OCaml? I'm also similarly suspicious that Haskell can do better here too. What do you think? Or was this a goof and now I'm a goober?
@sergey_tihon@_cartermp Not saying the implementation is bad! I just suspect a little exploration will probably uncover what is going on here. F# in my experience tends to outperform in contexts like these so I'd be curious what they're doing differently.
North Carolina is currently under a state of emergency to respond to Covid-19 (Coronavirus). Meetup meetings will be virtual until the state of emergency passes. Remember that limiting exposure helps us overcome this together!
@JCMRVA@dsymetweets @andygocke I think too, removing it would obscure rather than clarify. In my opinion it would make things harder to understand and learn, and more verbose. Currying led me to appreciating F# and the functional approach in a way that I'm not sure I would have done without it.
@mistymadonna I don't know if it applies to southerners broadly but I also haven't been out of the south much. It is however painfully true for me specifically.
@quorralyne I use a mix. I usually like to have autocomplete so I don't have to remember things, because I won't. command --help also goes a long way. For me sometimes ui is harder than cli, but it depends a lot on the application.
@pblasucci That's like saying to leverage VB in a significant way you must know C# and maybe javascript, which is also equally untrue. This may be how you're doing it, but it's not how it "has to be done".
If you want to help F# spread, there is probably no simpler thing to do than to go augment the .NET documentation pages at Microsoft. They are nearly always editable via a simple click-and-submit PR.

@jesslynnrose That tests are a sufficient replacement for static analysis, or dare I speak of it, formal analysis. Either that or the idea that you can be a good engineer while being hostile to teammates.
