| 2024-10-21 12:12:39 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> I got a job once by mentioning haskell |

| 2024-10-21 12:12:04 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> then sure, that's a great thing to mention |
| 2024-10-21 12:11:54 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> ah, great |

| 2024-10-21 12:11:44 +0200 | <kaol> | I've used Haskell in production for over 5 years. |
| 2024-10-21 12:11:04 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> if you don't know haskell yet, I don't think learning it will be a shortcut to learning rust |

| 2024-10-21 12:10:15 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> kaol: fair enough |
| 2024-10-21 12:10:14 +0200 | <kaol> | They said that knowing C++ is still a plus if you don't know Rust and I suspect that they would have mentioned Haskell as well but they didn't expect that anyone would know it. |

| 2024-10-21 12:08:46 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | which you can't learn beforehand, it takes practice |
| 2024-10-21 12:08:38 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | you will need to get familiarity and skills with the borrow checker |
| 2024-10-21 12:08:24 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | if you can show you have those things, you'll be in a very good place to pick up rust |
| 2024-10-21 12:07:15 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | Rust is like: Haskell + haskell mindset (strong typing, care about mutability) <tensorproduct> C++ mindset (resource awareness) + standard imperative programming |
| 2024-10-21 12:06:26 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | (sorry I skipped most of the convo) |
| 2024-10-21 12:06:10 +0200 | <kaol> | tomsmeding: Besides the C, C++ and Java I mentioned: Perl and JavaScript. Some Python and Pascal. Dabbled in a few others that I'll skip. |

| 2024-10-21 12:03:06 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | kaol: what other imperative languages do you know? |

| 2024-10-21 11:58:13 +0200 | <kaol> | I guess "hand waving" was overstating it, mainly I was just thinking how relevant mentioning Haskell knowledge would be when I tell that I don't know Rust (yet) in the application. |

| 2024-10-21 11:41:53 +0200 | <Hecate> | I'm reading the "Children of Time" trilogy by Adrian Tchaikovsky |
| 2024-10-21 11:41:52 +0200 | <Rembane> | Hecate: Oooooooooooh. Anything to recommend? |
| 2024-10-21 11:41:26 +0200 | <Hecate> | Rembane: still very busy! but I got some nice SF to read these days so that's really good |

| 2024-10-21 11:31:17 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> it's an anti hand waving language |
| 2024-10-21 11:30:09 +0200 | <Rembane> | Hecate: Not much, procrastinating finishing my thesis, looking for a new job but not that seriously, and enjoying the swedish autumn. :D |
