| 2026-02-26 14:51:25 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <maerwald> can't be bothered to contribute to 10 different linux distros |
| 2026-02-26 14:51:05 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <maerwald> Fedora is maybe an exception, because Jens is maintaining Haskell there |
| 2026-02-26 14:50:47 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <maerwald> the main reason is that distros rarely follow upstream development and are stuck with buggy and vulnerable GHC versions |

| 2026-02-26 14:21:40 +0100 | <geekosaur> | for something like C or C++ there's enough overlap not to be a problem, but there's a reason why other languages always tell you to use their installers and/or sandboxes |
| 2026-02-26 14:20:57 +0100 | <geekosaur> | just remember that, on any distro, their language packages support their needs, not yours |
| 2026-02-26 14:20:33 +0100 | <geekosaur> | it's fine if you ignore their packages and use ghcup |
| 2026-02-26 14:19:56 +0100 | <realBeginner> | My distro is Arch‑based; is that okay, or should I choose another distro that supports Haskell? |
| 2026-02-26 14:18:00 +0100 | <ski> | a textbook might also be nice |

| 2026-02-26 14:17:06 +0100 | <oskarw> | Try out haskell, if you have any problems just ask here. Here is haskell study guide I can recommend https://github.com/soupi/haskell-study-plan |
| 2026-02-26 14:16:36 +0100 | <realBeginner> | The idea that there are infinitely many numbers between 0 and 1 is really amazing to me, I just enjoy thinking about these subjects. |

| 2026-02-26 14:09:45 +0100 | <oskarw> | realBeginner: If you want to broaden your way of thinking, than haskell certainly can do that |
| 2026-02-26 14:09:01 +0100 | <realBeginner> | I love learning how to think and enjoy making complex things easier to do. |
| 2026-02-26 14:08:50 +0100 | <oskarw> | newmind: But together with parser it really throw me off. When I done some implementations for list for applicative and doing other exercises from typeclassopedia I didn't had that much of a problem |
