@jneira @kaleidic @notcalledjack So idiomatic is the set difference between Haskell and SafeHaskell?

@dibblego @kaleidic @notcalledjack in that case it is a social attempt to enforce SafeHaskell over Haskell

@jneira @kaleidic @notcalledjack If idiomatic code means "not being silly", then why do I see it used so often to mean "be extremely silly"?

@dibblego @kaleidic @notcalledjack well, we can discuss if use a subset of a lang can be "good" itself or about concretes subsets/langs

@jneira @kaleidic @notcalledjack This is so confusing. Are you really sure there is something useful behind all this? Really?

@dibblego I think it's only useful toward discussion of what may be familiar, or not, to different sorts of programmers, and why.

@kaleidic @dibblego Maybe I am missing some context in this drill down tweet stream, but isn't that what patterns are for? Good and bad.

@pandamonial I, too, see "patterns" as the same general topic as "idioms." That idea won't relieve @dibblego of his suspicions, I'll guess.
