Haskell has a cron like scheduler. What do you mean by embedding assets?

I suppose he's referring to embedding files (usually web resources such as js, css files) into the source code, using a tool such as go-bindata [1]. The assets are then accessed as variables.

Haskell has a library for this called "embed-file".

Haskell does but I'm comfortable in Go and easier to get people to contribute
