Well ... I've done it again. Once again I've been duped into reading
more monad tutorials. And once again I still don't get it. I've yet to
see an example that I understand and see why it is useful in practice.
I really want to understand monads, but it isn't happening for me. If
you think you can help me, please corner me at a Lambda Lounge
meeting.

JavaScript: Partial function application vs.... →
Here’s a pretty verbose dive into partial applications of, versus currying of, JavaScript functions. I found it especially enlightening about 2/3 of the way down when it got into currying and how that differs from plain old partial application. JavaScript is even (briefly) contrasted with ML and Haskell.

Reia brings you the best of both worlds between Ruby’s friendly syntax, reflection, metaprogramming, and the amazing power of blocks, and Erlang’s immense abilities for concurrency, distribution, hot code swapping, and fault tolerance.

Keynote On Haskell Trying To Grow A Community
It’s fun watching the introverted Haskell community try to cope with all the new interest in the language. Bryan O’Sullivan [1], the primary author of Real World Haskell [2], gave a nice keynote [3] at CUFP 2009 [4] on how the Haskell community can be less inward-focused. His advice in a nutshell, wherever you are on the learning curve, blog, talk, write a book and contribute your code...
