Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

Falsehoods

• There are always 24 hours in a day.
• February is always 28 days long.
• Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).

Disclaimer 3: Yeah called it, better to be realistic.

Type classes are a language of their own, this is an attempt to document features and give a name to them.

Installing GHC under the home directory

1. Install stack.
2. Run stack setup as a normal user. This will install GHC for you (under ~/.stack).
3. Run stack ghci to start ghci. Please see the rest of the page linked above on how to use stack to create and build projects.
