I tell people not to use Stack, because people have come to my classes trying to use Stack and it doesn't work. Not about good/bad students (but I've never had a bad one)

I'm open to this argument, but so many people haven't had this particular experience with new learners. What broke?

Yes they have. You just didn't hear about them.

It's not like we didn't run sessions here locally in Austin. I didn't say "majority;" I'd say the number of experiences of people I've witnessed personally and heard of secondary is in the "many" range.

k, I've heard 0, so I'll just move on. I really really don't understand why people want others to use Stack so badly. I want you to not, but whatevs, continue on.

I use stack, don't if others don't. Never manages to learn cabal properly, the literature out there about cabal was ... lacky. I didn't even know until yesterday that `runhaskell Setup.hs --arguments` was a think. But I only do toy projects in haskell.

sigh, yet another Stack vs Cabal, that's not what we're suggesting, ever.

not really. was just stating my experience. and I am still willing to learn more about Cabal, Cabal + Nix, or whatever is out there.

I'm gonna mute this conversation in a second, cause it's too silly, even for Twitter. But nobody has ever come to my first class and said "hey I tried to use Cabal but it didn't work" - but they have with Stack. It's not about Cabal vs Stack, it's about not Stack.

Until the next time there exists one person who simultaneously agrees with not-stack, and expresses this socially unacceptable opinion… See you both in a couple of weeks.
