I'm a girl. I'm not interested in Haskell, that's too frigging endofunctiorific. Erlang! That's what all the cool guys are doing.

Well, JSON is an easy format to parse. The spec can fit onto one page.
Hello everyone, and welcome to yet another recreational programming session with who?
No mom, I'm gonna BE a girl for Christmas. puts on programming socks
I don't think "programmer" fully captures the reality of being an emacs-based programmer.
This kind of text hits differently when you're a lesbian.
Wouldn’t it hit the same as it would a straight male?
POV: Not all moms are accepting of their daughters being into girls.
There are far more male programmers... As a programmer, be gay or stay alone... Choose!
Can programmers only be with other programmers or am I missing something?
But you kind of have to leave the house for that... I mean... We talk about programmers....

"JSON parser 100% from scratch in Haskell in 110 lines" doesn't get you horny? I guess some people are just wired differently.
I’m a programmer myself but my wife isn’t a programmer, that was my motivation for questioning.
Oh that explains why my wife is gay
If she was around the same cs students as me then yeah
Ouch!
She sleeps with men, that's pretty gay
Think you forgot to check their username before commenting that haha
There are a lot of things she does but that aint one of them
There are those who transition, so a significant chunk of that male programmer population is "male" as in quotation marks, only that some transition earlier than others. Does not guarantee that you can get the transgender autistic puppygirl (or other variations) of your dreams, since many of them are lesbians.
But also feel free to look outside your field for a partner. It's okay to date an artist as a programmer.
I think programmer should be seen as a gender itself.
I'm currently transitioning myself, already have a homeserver and a Linux PC, can't wait to be a real programmer.
and gender confirmation would not be getting called sir/ma'am at the starbucks but people asking you for IT help?
I detransitioned from being a programmer and all I have is depression since, maybe I should retransission into being a programmer

He won't be done debugging her by then. She'll be ready for beta testing next year.
Jokes on her, I've transitioned since last Christmas.
You can still bring a girl though
I am the girl! Hmm, but maybe I'll bring another one too? 🤔
Who needs a girl when you have monads to keep you warm?
Or become a girl with gonads
You gotta admit though, Haskell is crazy good for parsing and marshaling data
serde has entered the chat
Personally I'm more partial to nom. Serde is quite verbose and complex for a parser.
From Scratch (as much as I like Rust, it's very likely more verbose from scratch). Haskell is perfect for these kinds of things.
I will concede that implementing the first version in Haskell would be better.
Mostly so that we can then fulfil the meme of reimplementing it Rust!
