| 2024-10-06 18:21:56 +0200 | <dminuoso> | Philosophically there's some merit, after all the langauge itself doesn't do anything. The actual result (AMD64 machine code) is definitely good at solving a particular numerical task. |
| 2024-10-06 18:20:56 +0200 | <monochrom> | In fact, even more extreme, I even reject calling a language good at task X at all. |

| 2024-10-06 18:20:42 +0200 | <geekosaur> | and why |
| 2024-10-06 18:20:32 +0200 | <geekosaur> | every time someone asks that question I wonder who's being so insecure about big scary Haskell again |
| 2024-10-06 18:20:17 +0200 | <monochrom> | I don't like it, but people have already merged "language" and "ecosystem" into one single thing and called it "the language". |
| 2024-10-06 18:20:11 +0200 | <dminuoso> | Well, it suggests that having access to a library in itself improves the language itself. |
| 2024-10-06 18:19:45 +0200 | <dminuoso> | It feels like a misattribution that leads to to bad comparisons. |
| 2024-10-06 18:19:34 +0200 | <Rembane> | dminuoso: Is Python or Clojure doing its thing again? |
| 2024-10-06 18:18:52 +0200 | <dminuoso> | tomsmeding: I keep wondering whether calling a language good at task X because of an ecosystem is a sensible thing. |

| 2024-10-06 18:11:53 +0200 | <geekosaur> | I compulsively clean my homedir regularly… but there's still some buildup because of things I'm not sure what to do with |

| 2024-10-06 18:09:16 +0200 | <Lears> | Yeah, my home folder is a junk heap with years of stray .hs files I haven't gotten around to cleaning up. `wc` says 11k lines! Yikes. |

| 2024-10-06 18:00:36 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | I have a test.hs in my home directory that is my go-to for essentially a local playground |
| 2024-10-06 18:00:04 +0200 | <monochrom> | I am pretty negative about doing anything non-trivial on the REPL. play.haskell.org is the best option when one wants to be lazy. |
| 2024-10-06 17:58:59 +0200 | <monochrom> | I thought I was the one with negativity and whining. :) |
