It's short, and the "why" behind names doesn't matter.

Thanks! That's really cool.

Unfortunately, name, `nub`, is the best thing about this function. It has horrible (O(n^2)) performance, and only works with lists.

Then, clearly, the right path is to never go Go.

nub is widely recognized to be a terrible function; it's not indicative of anything

Ah, but that depends on what your definition of ““is” is” is.

Ah, but that depends on what your definition "\"is\" is" is.

I hope this makes you feel better!

I'm a generalist who is working for a couple of years to save money before graduate school. I'm looking for an opportunity to work with the technologies that I specialize in: functional programming and high-performance systems programming.

My long-term goal is to work on Haskell compilers, so I specialized hard in functional programming and in optimizing low-level code. I'm hoping to find companies that have taken a risk by using up-and-coming technologies (Haskell/Rust/react.js/etc) and are looking for developers that can work effectively with those technologies. I'd also be happy to work with a team that uses functional programming with more mainstream languages, or with a team that writes a lot of low-level, performance-critical code.

In graduate school, I want to work on whole-program-optimizing compilers for Haskell that target Javascript/Java/LLVM. I want to make Haskell practical for real-world development of web and mobile applications. I've spend a lot of time studying Stalin and Mlton, and I think they make a strong case for the potential of whole program optimization.

This is pretty cool. Is there something like this for the LuaJIT VM?

Location: Bay Area

Remote: Sure! As long as the whole team is remote or has a track record of communicating well with a remote member.

Willing to relocate: Yes

Technologies: Haskell, C, writting Haskell/C code in other languages, Unix, HTML5, git, systems, compilers.

I specialized heavily in the best tools I could find (Haskell/C/Unix/git), but I'm having a hard time finding a place for those skills in the industry.
