New blog post: The bottom of the #haskell Pyramid (as I see it):
https://gilmi.me/blog/post/2021/03/16/bottom-haskell-pyramid
@suppi I would errata "learn about QuickCheck" to say "learn about property-based tests and try out Hedgehog".
@jonn I changed it to "property-based testing and QuickCheck". Thanks :)
@suppi well, my suggestion was more than a mere nit-pick. I think that we should teach beginners hedgehog, not quickcheck and megaparsec, not parsec.
@jonn I don't mention parsec or megaparsec in the article, and I disagree with hedgehog being better than quickcheck. I've used quickcheck extensively and I think it's a good library and that there are good tutorials for it out there, hedgehog crashed my computer by consuming too much memory within 2 hours of use.
@jonn Agreed, Haskell is really cool and I use it for pretty much everything. I wish more people use it!
