Jason Follas has done it again! He has trumped all of our feeble geeky efforts to firmly establish himself as the reigning "King Nerd." Over the years, Jason repeatedly has proven his worthiness. Here are a few highlights.
Today, I began a modest blog post series of F# solutions to the Project Euler problems. Not to be outdone, Jason has started a similar series. However, Jason has far loftier, or rather, nerdier goals for his series. You see, Jason is solving the problems with LUA, the scripting language beneath World of Warcraft. In fact, he's using WoW as his test-bed.
Don't believe me? Check out the screenshot below.
The man must be stopped before he goes too far.

If feel a bit behind and need to catch up on WPF, this is the book.
Great book on F# containing from Beginner to Advanced. It even has chapters on more arcane features of the language, such as Computation Expressions and Quotations.
Because this book provides source code in Standard ML, it's a fantastic resource for learning F#. One bit of warning: this book does not teach classic data structures. While structures such as binomial heaps and red-black trees are presented, it is assumed that the reader already knows and understands them.
