What good are trees?

I've never had to use them.

If the cost wasn't so minimal, you'd be better off converting once, doing your number operations and then converting back,
it's nice to be able to do things like uncurry (flip (:)) . (ap ((!!) . (: [[]]) . f) (0 ^) *** ('0' +) . fromInteger) . flip divMod 10, tho.

On a separate note, with that solution can you intermix it with other Numeric types? I was under the impression that you couldn't mix types within a typeclass instance. So, with your solution I imagine that you can't do 'I' + 3 and get 'L'.
*Test> 'I' + 3
'L'
(0.00 secs, 0 bytes)
*Test>
but that's not actually mixing types. both 'I' and 3 in 'I' + 3 are Chars.

{b.i.o.u EXPERT PROGRAMMERS} use {i SexpCode}.

Do we have an Emacs major mode for SexpCode editing?

Is anyone actually working on that Greasemonkey script, anyway?

I was considering it, but >>43 has provided a more tempting proposal.

Hipster shit.

Listen here, jerkface.

What good are magnets?

I've never had to use it.

What, Twitter? When it's become so popular even politicians and grandmothers are using it, I think it stops being ``hipster shit'' by definition. Meanwhile, hating Twitter has become a hipster fad akin to not having a Facebook out loud and being proud of not owning a TV.
It's fair enough not to have a Twitter account of your own because you don't think it's useful or you don't trust Twitter to be competent enough to keep your data safe, but hating it because people use it is childish.

I was proud to have no TV before the internet was cool, i.e. when it actually was cool (read: devoid of advertising.) Now that the internet has TV (complete with ads--gotta love it, this is actual piracy) the fact that I do not own a television is sort of meaningless.

Twitter is difficult to hate. They don't seem to be doing anything underhanded and the users are less annoying than one would expect. I have an account but I haven't used it in any capacity for quite some time.

Facebook is easy to hate, though. The network gives people all the tools they need to be as annoying as possible (you'd have to hand out free cellphones to make it any worse), and underhandedness seems to be in the mission statement somewhere.

Facebook as a platform is exactly as good or bad as your circle of friends. If you hate it, you have only yourself to blame.

>>49
hating hipsters has become a hipster fad.

>>51
yeah, once you block the ads and set the privacy options not to share every single detail you put on your profile with everyone.

>>49
I don't have a Facebook account but I don't understand people loudly exclaiming that (they don't have one) like a badge of honor.  Is it part of some attempt to sound nouveau-trendy?

I keep track of people I know with phone calls, liberal instant messaging, and very conservative text messaging; all of this is, of course, trumped by actually being there with them in person.

>>51
Haha wow. No.

Idiot with shitty friends detected.

_{The disparity between >>1 and >>51-55 concerns me. I fear the content of this thread and therefore I am electing not to read it from it the beginning!}

DISPARITIZE MY ANUS

I have a TV in my room only for consoles. However I hate everything on TV and I only download some american TV shows. Does that make me a hipster?

>>51
None of the people I consider friends have facebook. Neither do I. WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW?

>>52
share every single detail you put on your profile
Again, the problem there isn't Facebook, but you. Don't fucking put it on the public Internet if you don't want people to see it. Social networking exists entirely to disseminate the information you give it.

>>58
You should be downloading British TV shows instead.

Tv, facebook, and twitter are shit

The only thing you should be doing is watching b-rated movies with girlfriends that you aren't dating just for the sex.

>>60
I'm glad that's working out for you.

Fully one third of the TV shows Xarn lists as his favorite on his Facebook profile are American!

>>59
I do like Charlie Brooker. I watch some of his shows on Youtube from time to time.

>>60
No, you should watch those things with some bros. I have yet to meet a girl who gets the appeal of MST3K. Nevermind non-riffed masterpieces such as Samurai Cop.

This needs a good bump.

>>64
It really didn't.

>>62
The other four are all British. I wonder why he doesn't watch any Belgian TV.
