Quotes

  • I was walking in the city the other day. I saw a syringe lying on the sidewalk. I stuck the needle in my forearm. That was a classy neighborhood, so the use of the syringe seemed justified.
  • You see, the Caml garbage collector is like a god from ancient mythology: mighty, but very irritable. If you mess with it, it'll make you suffer in surprising ways.
  • A few programming is taking you away from mathematics; a lot will get you back in.
  • Repeat after me: "Obj.magic is not part of the OCaml language".
  • If Bordeaux red wines were carbonated, McDonald's would be a lot more interested in selling them.
