Write beautiful software

Name: Anonymous 2012-02-29 3:21

You are an artist. Your laptop is your brush. Incidentally, your brush is emblazoned with a small, white, glowing piece of fruit, because you are an artist. You care about the design of things. You sweat the details. You carefully paint each leaf on the juniper bush.

We, too, are artists.

We write lots of code in Ruby because it's beautifully succinct. It lets us get things done, minimizing the time it takes to craft our ideas into reality.

We also write lots of code in Objective-C because of the beautiful user interfaces we can create with it. We want to make software that literally responds to your every touch.

Unlike a great painting, truly great software can not be made alone.

We're looking for likeminded hackers who share our artistic vision.

Haskell:
Prelude> ["a", "b", "c"] ++ ["d", "e", "f"]
["a","b","c","d","e","f"]
Prelude> "a" ++ "b"
"ab"
Prelude> "a" + 5

<interactive>:1:7:
    No instance for (Num [Char])
      arising from the literal `5'
    Possible fix: add an instance declaration for (Num [Char])
    In the second argument of `(+)', namely `5'
    In the expression: "a" + 5
    In an equation for `it': it = "a" + 5
