Take The Haskell Beginners 2022 Course



There's a short and free course on YouTube about Haskell and Functional Programming, taught by a very experienced developer.

And that developer, teacher and enthusiast is Dmitrii Kovanikov, co-founder of KOWAINIK, a small team of enthusiasts who use Haskell and other functional technologies to develop more reliable libraries and tools, as well as a Quantitative Developer at Standard Chartered. Believe me, he knows his craft.


Last year, I had a look at another great and free Haskell course by Professor Graham Hutton from the University of Nottingham in "Free Course On Functional Programming in Haskell" where I explored the connection of Haskell and mathematics :

As Haskell is a purely functional language, when you write a program in it you are in essence writing mathematical functions. It's where a good background in mathematics will help you in programming, something that finally answers the timeless question of whether you need maths in order to program, a topic explored in Does Math Help Programming Or Programming Help Math?.

The PaSh Project gives your POSIX script superpowers by utilizing parallelization in order to speed up execution times.

The PaSh Project gives your POSIX script superpowers by utilizing parallelization in order to speed up execution times. This leads to faster results for data scientists,  engineers,  biologists,  economists,  administrators,  and programmers. I remember the time when the saying was "Learn Perl so you don't have to learn the Shell and its hundreds of utilities". Fast forward some decades and the use of shell scripts still has not been eradicated. On the contrary, their use has increased due to the rise of containers, VM's, administering the cloud, and Linux itself. This also serves as a lesson to those who are quick to denounce technologies as 'dead'. There's a time where a new use case revitalizes an old technology. So what is meant by "Unix philosophy"?  full article on i-programmer: https://www.i-programmer.info/news/90-tools/14990-the-pash-project-advancing-the-unix-philosophy-one-step-further.html

Open Source Is Not Just About Software

  It's about infrastructure as well, something that although not attracting the limelight, is as important as the open source software it hosts. Today the stewards of the largest open source registries in the world have issued an open letter demanding urgent reform in how open source infrastructure is funded, maintained, and operated.  https://www.i-programmer.info/news/136-open-source/18334-open-source-is-not-just-about-software.html

DeepSWE - Best Benchmark For Evaluating AI Coding Agents?

  DeepSWE is a high-fidelity benchmarking platform designed to evaluate the performance of frontier AI coding agents on complex long-horizon software engineering tasks. Unlike traditional benchmarks that reuse existing GitHub data, this system utilizes original, contamination-free tasks across five major programming languages to prevent models from relying on memorized solutions, creating a much clearer separation between frontier coding models than older public benchmarks like SWE-bench. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/105-artificial-intelligence/19016-deepswe-best-benchmark-for-evaluating-ai-coding-agents.html
