Lean people could also have as many $ as they want, but they like some weird triangles.

What’s the difference between operators and functions? Not sure if Haskell has this distinction… all of those are functions. And .: is not in base as far as I can tell.

A new Signals and Threads just dropped, with @ianthehenry.bsky.social! This one is about building tools for traders, but it also has some fun dives into Ian's personal projects, including bauble.studio and janet.guide.

Anyway, more here:

I'm thinking about a second edition of Parallel and Concurrent Programming in Haskell. Any thoughts on what should be added (or removed)? What's missing, what updates are needed to reflect common usage?

The obvious new things are async and Haxl. Should the chapter on distributed-process be kept?

A word? It’s an effing poem!

Ghostty has it built in and falls back to it for the glyphs the current font doesn’t have.

Don’t need that with ghostty :)

Wondering if enabling github sponsorship for @haskell.org would be a nice thing to do. I imagine it won’t bring tons of $ but it’s infinitely better than nothing?

*explaining gender euphoria to a developer* so, imagine you're learning about a whole new way of appearing to the world, and talking to computers doesn't have to be so painful and alienating!

Which makes them not only efficient but also reliable (:

Maybe one of them is just a hot replacement to hit their SLA of 99.99999

I think I am Vegemiterian…

This one is a very nice and inspiring talk. I still wish it had more technical details about how to write safe ziglang.
