actually i don't hate #haskell, i just despise the hacker fad. 'was unix philosophy 90s, perl, java/oop 95, lisp 2000s, xml/XP/patterns/defensive programing, ruby (~2007), agile 2010, etc.
its funny that many of these ideas, at the time many programers will actually attack you (call you a troll) if you think otherwise, but after a decade, you mention it, nobody actually KNEW what you talking about. Good example is all the slogan/ideas said about perl, xml, lisp.

when you think about the landscape of human chat, e.g. programer forum online, i think that certain subject, word, that is most frequently talked about and yet most shallow. Kinda like drama gossip in other subjects. It'd be interesting to characterize this scientifically.

without starting research, we naively begin to think that, dramatic gossip is the MOST frequent nature of human chat that is also the most ephemeral+shallow+false. To narrow down, we can try to look at all online chat from 1990 of programers. wow, this'd be good data mining thesis project.
