It also has syntax for structural typing where needed.

I must admit, I'm not desperate enough for new readers to hamstring my own publishing to my existing readers - so summary RSS feed is out for me. I'd consider delaying RSS publication but that's actually very awkward as it&#x

Interesting; that's autogenerated by Octopress (or Jakyll). I'd never noticed it's missing the '/'.

I have yes, no mention of any issues from the tools (it even claims to like the sitemap).

Packages generally work fine, although if they rely on native binaries they often require a bit of tweaking to point at the Linux .so rather than the windows .dll. That's uncommon in the .net world though. The ecosystem is huge; http:

As mentioned above, fsx files can be executed with the correct #! if fsharpi is installed.

I'd probably look into Paket (a nuget aware package/source dependency manager) for that. Sorry for the short answer, New Years celebrations beckon!

The F# community seem to be most active via twitter, Google+ and (slightly bizarrely) StackOverflow chat in my experience. /r/fsharp is pretty small, although I've always found it friendly.

It is mainly Windows, but as stated in a few other answers people are using Mono in production. How long ago did you look around? I have to admit that it's only really become fully practical (in my mind) in the last 6 months or so.

It should be possible to plug the F# binding backend into sublime; it expects to run as a separate process and have buffer states passed back and forth as JSON. I don't know much about sublime plugins, but I believe that they're P

As in a self executing file? Not the standard deploy story, but is in theory possible on Mono with a combination of F# compiler options to compile in all dependencies, and mono's "ahead of time (AOT)" build. It does mean that

The lack of good instructions is definitely one! (Edit: although http://fsharp.org/use/linux/ covers the absolute basics pretty well) Up until recently, packaging was a bit of an issue, but recently the official M

There are definitely people using F# on Mono in production, but it is the smaller brother still. Having said that, nearly all of the "core" projects are now being CI tested on mono as well as windows, and the fsharpbindings projec

Have a type provider ;) http://blog.mavnn.co.uk/type-safe-printf-via-type-providers/ And yes: syntax is not quite so nice.

Slightly blowing my own trumpet, but if you want a brief overview of the basics this might help: http://blog.mavnn.co.uk/type-providers-from-the-ground-up/

Un-functional might be a bit misleading for an ML-based, default immutable language. Impure might be slightly more accurate. Having seen F# written by C# coders who've just learnt the syntax, and haskell programmers who are having to w

It's not that widely known, but you can remove your child from state education as a parent and teach them yourself. You just have to tell the local authority you're doing so in writing.

True. Unfortunately there is a length limit on submission titles, and it was the best I managed within the constraints. I don't believe it makes it a less interesting read from a Western viewpoint, though.

I am not in the slightest defending China's human rights record. But hopefully you realise that none of the above refutes the article in the slightest. You have not addressed a single point in it.
