| 2021-12-22 03:15:11 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | Is haskell fast and consumes less memory like c? Is xmonad fast? I searched up the internet already. Would like to hear your opinion too. I wouldn't mind learning haskell. I want efficiency |

| 2021-12-22 03:50:44 +0100 | <burp> | xmonad is fast, but I wouldn't say Haskell is good for numerical applications |
| 2021-12-22 03:50:57 +0100 | <burp> | use it for high level tasks |
| 2021-12-22 03:51:53 +0100 | <burp> | if your goal is raw efficiency, maybe Haskell is not what you are looking for |
| 2021-12-22 03:55:41 +0100 | <VarikValefor[m]> | burp: Haskell has some fast numeric libraries. |
| 2021-12-22 03:56:58 +0100 | <burp> | VarikValefor[m]: native? |
| 2021-12-22 03:57:14 +0100 | <burp> | or do they link C/Fortran or embed that? |
| 2021-12-22 03:58:04 +0100 | <burp> | so yea, a combination is always possible, do low level numerical stuff with C/Fortran, and interface it for higher level stuff in Haskell, if you so desire |
| 2021-12-22 03:58:16 +0100 | <burp> | like Python people do it I guess |

| 2021-12-22 16:01:51 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | I'm trying to choose a twm. Rn I've narrowed it down to xmonad and dwm. I've heared xmonad is highly extensible. How true is that? |
| 2021-12-22 16:03:34 +0100 | <geekosaur> | we've got 200 extension modules and still growing |
| 2021-12-22 16:04:02 +0100 | <geekosaur> | dwm should actually be just as extensible, since xmonad is more or less dwm in Haskell instead of C |
| 2021-12-22 16:05:22 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | But community patches in dwm is less in number? Are Extension same as patches? |
| 2021-12-22 16:08:22 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | Am I asking the wrong questions |
| 2021-12-22 16:08:23 +0100 | <geekosaur> | essentially the same. C more or less requires that extensions be done as patches; Haskell is more flexible, so we can do things as extension modules that plug in |
| 2021-12-22 16:09:01 +0100 | <geekosaur> | that's a large part of why xmonad was developed in the first place, because Haskell made it possible to express things more easily and more flexibly than C did |
| 2021-12-22 16:09:32 +0100 | <geekosaur> | sadly the original developers are gone at this point |
| 2021-12-22 16:10:59 +0100 | <geekosaur> | I'm the longest serving developer at this point and I came on board when xmonad was at version 0.2 so I can't say much about the earlier history than what dons and sjanssen told me back then |
| 2021-12-22 16:11:19 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | Oh that's sad. |
| 2021-12-22 16:12:23 +0100 | <geekosaur> | haskell programmers have this annoying tendency to be hired by financial institutions that then put restrictive NDAs on them so they can't contribute to open source any more |
| 2021-12-22 16:12:58 +0100 | <geekosaur> | (I've been on the edge of that and intend to get no closer) |
| 2021-12-22 16:15:16 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | Wow first time talking to a developer. thanks for your work (yours & ur fellow developers) ! After ricing my pc, I'm thinking of contributing as much as I can. |
| 2021-12-22 16:18:22 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | Oh. That's kinda messed up. Haskell being hard to learn and restricting the ones who are able to get a job as haskell programmer from contributing to open source.... |

| 2021-12-22 16:19:42 +0100 | <geekosaur> | not everyone who gets a haskell job is restricted, and in fact many of the big ecosystem developers have haskell-related jobs. it's just the ones who work for banks and the like, and that isn't so much related to haskell as it is to banks |
| 2021-12-22 16:19:47 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | That's gotta impact the health of the project. |
| 2021-12-22 16:20:32 +0100 | <geekosaur> | not really. they designed the core, but the core is pretty stable and hasn't changed or needed to change much since |
| 2021-12-22 16:21:10 +0100 | <geekosaur> | contrib changes a lot more, and while we contribute to it, more often we're helping others contribute to it |
| 2021-12-22 16:22:03 +0100 | x88x88x | (~x88x88x@149.28.53.172) |
| 2021-12-22 16:23:42 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | That sounds like a really smart thing to do. I've never heard other projects doing something like this but my knowledge is tiny on these subjects. |
| 2021-12-22 16:24:08 +0100 | <geekosaur> | (liskin will probably beg to differ at this point since he likes to bite off more than he can chew :) |
| 2021-12-22 16:30:01 +0100 | <geekosaur> | I think most projects I'm aware of have mentors to help new contributors, whether they're Haskell-related or not. You generally need to make contributing as easy as possible for a project to stay alive |
| 2021-12-22 16:30:38 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | :D we ,contributers, hope will make all your time & effort worthwhile. |
| 2021-12-22 16:31:51 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | That's true! |
| 2021-12-22 16:33:16 +0100 | <geekosaur> | I know if you go talk to sm over in #hledger he'll tell you much the same thing. The bar's already pretty high just because we're both Haskell-based projects, making it even higher does not help at all |
| 2021-12-22 16:39:33 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | I agree! |
| 2021-12-22 16:42:09 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | So adding extensions to xmonad is as simple as "import extension" ? |
| 2021-12-22 16:42:51 +0100 | <geekosaur> | generally you need to add something to a hook, or add a combinator somewhere. but you don't need to patch xmonad source or anything silly like that |
| 2021-12-22 16:43:59 +0100 | <geekosaur> | in Haskell, importing something just brings new names into scope, you still have to make use of those names |
| 2021-12-22 16:44:30 +0100 | <geekosaur> | but we generally try to make using those names easy |
| 2021-12-22 16:44:48 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | That's going to avoid a lot of pain. One or two patches is managable removing one patch when there are 5-6 patches, things can go wrong anytime. |
| 2021-12-22 16:44:56 +0100 | <geekosaur> | we're still redesigning some of the older parts of contrib to make them easier to use |
| 2021-12-22 16:46:29 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | That's amazing! |
| 2021-12-22 16:50:39 +0100 | <dirtcastle> | U have convinced me to use xmonad. :) Ever since I learnt abt linux , FLOSS, I am in love with it. love you guys and ur work. |
