If I have the first 10 posts displayed on the homepage, and in their category pages, will this be recognized by goog as duplicate content? Will this have negative effects in terms of SEO?

it might be recognized as duplicate content but it doesn't really matter it terms of seo. Google will index the page it thinks is the most important and not index the duplicate page.
Sorry, cedricloi, but your statement is simply wrong.
Yes, it can have negative effects, and I'd suggest using a SEO plugin that allows setting categories, tags, etc. to noindex. One duplicate page won't matter much, but especially when using tags and categories excessively, you'll get loads of it.

thx for the replies
It isnt just a snippet though, homepage dispays three full 1000 word posts, and these full posts are also displayed in categories.
Does it not make sense to have as much content on every page as possible, while trying to minimize duplicate content? Listing excerpts of articles seems like a waste of resources?
not at all. Use same slug for the post. Dont go for 2 different pages with different slug, this will add negative effect to search engines
