How do you like it?
Was think if checking it out once I get a bit more mastery of go. -
Cube18929268yThis is a language that evolved out of another one called Nemerle which was created by a group of students from my previous university. The "leader" was involved in creating F# and currently works in MSR.

@grolofson I like it a lot so far. I've done a fair amount of functional Javascript (ramda, lodash/fp,...) so the concepts are pretty easy to understand
I'd love to get a job where I can program functionally. I've tried it at the place I work at but a lot of people have problems grasping functional concepts even with a language like Javascript. So I guess f# is a good option for that -
@grolofson I think then you'll love f#. I think it's a lot more usable than something like Haskell because you can directly work with all .NET libraries and it just feels a lot more approachable

Hakii988yIt remembers me a langage i used during a single cursus: OCaml if someone knows. It was not horrible, but could be better i think ;) What you showed in F# right now could be those improvements (at first sight) ;)

@mohan there you go:
I3: http://pastebin.com/0CBy2b8T
I3blocks: http://pastebin.com/pJJPkPRZ
If you want the icons to render properly you need to install font awesome as a system font. You also need to install I3blocks
I also replaced dmenu with rofi since it looks a lot nicer so yeah
Started to learn f# 😄
