icfp results

ICFP results. We got 9th, which I'm especially proud of given we were a team of two and this was my second competition ever. (But as I've pointed out elsewhere, my teammate kinda carried the team; I got all the "easy" points while he was sleeping, and then spent the rest of the time finishing up ADVTR.)

Google-based teams, of people way more hardcore than me, also took 1st and 3rd.

nibot I look forward to hearing their report about how they went about creating the codex—supposedly they presented this in a talk at ICFP, no?

houdini_cs My team (Abstraction Anonymous) did better than I expected. Hopefully we'll do better next year :)

Good job!

flipzagging Amazing. Congratulations.

I was ranting about Haskell to two interns, and this story helped pique their interest too.
