| 2026-01-23 23:43:09 +0100 | <geekosaur> | what I was getting at is that I consider them just different mechanisms. each may have advantages in some situations and disadvantages in others |
| 2026-01-23 23:42:31 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> well, runtime macros |

| 2026-01-23 23:42:15 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> i mean any language with strong macros can define custom control structures |

| 2026-01-23 23:41:38 +0100 | <geekosaur> | Haskell's laziness lets you define some things that must be built-in control structures in other languages as functions. But the same can be said of Tcl and Ruby, in their own ways |
| 2026-01-23 23:41:26 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> well, i was wondering if for/for_ being functions in Haskell were advantages, HOF zoo has the issue that you'd actually need to know what the HOFs used are |

| 2026-01-23 23:40:38 +0100 | <geekosaur> | does it have to be one or the other? |
| 2026-01-23 23:40:01 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> is it better or worse than for is a function in Haskell, vs being a macro in Lisp or syntax in a traditional language? |

| 2026-01-23 22:46:03 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> ah, it was in the matrix Haskell room. "random: this talk on APL teaching and style (https://youtu.be/9xCJ3BCIudI) was really interesting. Contrasts (and similarities) with Haskell came up a few times." |

| 2026-01-23 22:31:52 +0100 | <EvanR> | because of how much it can be decomplected |
| 2026-01-23 22:31:29 +0100 | <EvanR> | I'm fascinated by the one or two APLs implemented in haskell |

| 2026-01-23 22:02:04 +0100 | <oskarw> | Personally, I prefer lisp syntax to haskell, but I also love haskell typing |
