This episode is about the journey of a programmer that converted himself into a Haskell developer after working with C/C++ for more than 10years.

Here are a few questions that you'll find the answer to in this episode:

  • What does he find so compelling about Haskell?

  • Why did it make him dive deeper into the Theoretical Computer Science?

  • Why did it make him learn Coq and Category Theory?

  • How does Coq compare with ACL2?

  • How do both Coq and ACL2 compares to TLA+?

  • Did learning Coq make John a better programmer?
