Disregard Data.List; we should stop making streaming an advanced topic and just do it all the time https://open.substack.com/pub/typeclasses/p/disregard-data-list?r=27q3sd&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

@acowley Do you know if anybody has tried yet to come up with some typeclass abstractions, so maybe you could code against a more general library sometimes and plug in a concrete stream implementation?

@acowley (By the way, another dream of mine is a general API for defining random generators that you could swap quickcheck or hedgehog into)

rofl we finally got to the part in downton abbey where edith starts a fire trying to microwave a cheesy pita in the break room

It's pretty delightful to eat stuff foraged out of your own yard, even if it does take forever to pick and clean

One of the new chicks is all bloody because a hen's been pecking at her, happy mothers day

In fairness it's not really her mother

a guy yesterday told me an adorable story about how a lot of friends have died in crashes on harleys and now he rides a little honda he'd have been ashamed to be seen on in his youth

sometimes I think this kind of guy knows he has to be chatty because his tattoos are scary

I really can't stand the sentiment that people should never be donating labor to a commercial project. I don't mind helping out at the farmers market; their businesses help me, they're irreplaceable, and I know they're not making very much money. We need to remember that small businesses exist, and not give them the same combative spirit that we owe to big business.

I dislike non-commercial creative commons licenses because they fail to distinguish commerce that sustains a family from commerce that grotesquely accumulates excess capital, which are just totally different things.

If your war on big tech is causing you to adopt Bioshock-style "who should own the sweat of a man's brow" rhetoric then maybe you've lost the thread

Well hot damn, exceptions in GHC 9.10 are going to be fancy as hell https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0330-exception-backtraces.rst

chris__martin,

> During discussions on a previous iteration of this proposal, various community members mentioned that they were using dynamically-typed annotations on exceptions in their own code-bases to great effect. One such library, annotated-exception, served as the inspiration for the annotation notion proposed above and could likely be largely superceded by ExceptionAnnotation.

Faint aurora here, first time I've seen it at all so still pretty cool.

Favorite sky phenomenon I've ever seen was light pillars, five years ago.

It's interesting, an automatic watch - it doesn't just accommodate, it depends on you. If you don't wear it, it dies

@sanityinc SRPH31, I like it, definitely going to have to swap in a more comfortable band

Another example of "offensive" being the only language people seem to have to talk about problems anymore. It isn't the Apple "Crush" ad that's wrong! It's upsetting because it's an accurate depiction of the change we're seeing. These objects are disappearing and cheap electronic substitutes are the reason.

chris__martin,

The ad may have been a misstep from their perspective but I'm glad they gave us this fantastic artistic depiction of the device paradigm.

chris__martin, (edited )
@chris__martin@functional.cafe avatar

I'm not sure it even is a misstep, though. I'm reminded of the very beginning of Mad Men where Don realizes that his job isn't to convince the public that they should keep smoking despite its problems; it's just to convince smokers they should buy his brand instead of the other one. "People love smoking." Likewise Apple isn't responsible for the device paradigm, nor is it at risk of thirst for device diminishing. Apple has to make its name synonymous with the trend and it wouldn't do them much good to try to convince us that the trend isn't horrible.

The role of cussing in the home is to help establish a register that distinguishes angry criticism from loving criticism. The children make mistakes, but the computer fucks up.

People mock significant whitespace when it's Python but not when it's Haskell? Show some courage why don't you
