Submission guidelines

Feel free to submit articles, videos, blogs, etc, related to Functional Programming. They must be either in English, have subtitles if videos or courses, or have a translation available.

Check out the flairs available to tag your submission.

Job posts are OK, as long as well spaced out. It means that if you see recent submissions of jobs, please avoid submitting yours until other posts have appeared. That avoids making the mainpage of our readers full of job listings only. Job searching posts are not allowed (it is an individual post, that does not really benefit others - you can use HackerNews' Who Wants to be Hired, for example).

Avoid posting surveys unless the research/researcher/research group can be easily identified without going outside of reddit (e.g. looking at the user profile or reddit history). Surveys from throwaway accounts will be removed, and the user banned. Surveys where users must give their emails, or click on unknown/external URL's are also removed.

Send a message the mods if you would like to list an event in the sidebar, or make a post an announcement.

Rules

Be respectful and nice to each other
Remember language and cultural differences/barriers
Remember that everyone was a beginner at some point
Posts and comments that do not follow the items above will be i) removed, ii) reported, and maybe iii) the user will be banned
Try to follow the guidelines, please
Posts should be related to Functional Programming
Self-promotion is OK as long as you read and understand this Reddit page about self-promotion (excessive self-promoting is moderated, unfortunately subjectively but just so it's not completely banned)
Posts behind paywall or that require or misdirect users at registering before accessing the content are not accepted
If you have any questions feel free to message the mods
