So far really enjoying ocaml + dream

github.com/ocaml/ocaml.org can be a reasonable reference for these kinds of things

What's the best way to parse markdown frontmatter in ocaml? I tried frontmatter_extractor with yaml, but dune and opam are screaming at me saying Frontmatter_extractor_yaml isn't real 😭

If you have complaints about YAMLx, please direct them to me. #ocaml

Oh yes in that case it's fine to enable publish_all

we just had to merge the scraper's pull request

OCaml seems neat

Just finished Chapter 8, "Statements and State"! Wow that was longer and tougher than the previous chapters 😅

Kinda proud of running my first lox script

#OCaml

let me check when I'm back home

I feel like there's so much potential to build great ecosystem around these languages

ATD now supports YAML! The key was to propagate source locations to produce useful error messages.

#ocaml

nice!

And just finished Chapter 7 "Evaluating Expressions" of the book "Crafting Interpreters"

#OCaml

maybe something changed in the meantime, back the last time when it went down it would rebuild nicely

looks like I'll later today have to look into why it's only starting from here

hard to tell but there's still some obvious bot patterns on almost all bots today

the thing is indeed... when will we stop to notice 😂

sorry about the OCaml feed going down, it's processing and bound to come up again soon

I mean I feel fine shooting my shot with humans.

But I don't want to manually write messages to bots, you know?

one of the most interesting questions when using social media: how do we distinguish between bots, people not interested in us, those who could become allies or friends, and non-bot followers?

don't want to waste time on who's not interested

idk, someone building this? I want to try it.

uhh pretty

three mugs, depicting the logos of Agda, OCaml, and Hazel, sitting on office desk

Ordered Agda and OCaml mugs from the @ttforall.bsky.social merch store and Pedro threw in a little bonus! 💚

it's an interesting consideration and I feel the post captures really well some thought I also have on what's a sensible way to use AI

but only time will tell

.plan-26-14: Tracking AI screen time and escaping to pen and paper Mythos Preview and the urgent need for internet immune systems, cognitive DDoS and AI screen time for code, a proposal for voluntary disclosure in OCaml, desktop focus and printed papers, iOS misery, GeoTessera 0.8, Ceph at 1.4PB, OCaml CI migration, hardware perf counters for OxCaml, and the FP Launchpad launch at IIT Madras.

Anil Madhavapeddy discusses AI screen time in coding workflows and proposes voluntary disclosure mechanisms in OCaml.

Also covers GeoTessera 0.8 release with spatial indexing improvements and the FP Launchpad launch at IIT Madras.

Release v0.8.0 · bbatsov/neocaml New features #47: Add neocaml-backward-up-list, bound to C-M-u, for jumping out of the enclosing OCaml block (struct/sig/object, records, arrays, etc.). The built-in backward-up-list doesn't under...

neocaml 0.8 is out with several fixes and small improvements github.com/bbatsov/neoc...

neocaml is a modern #Emacs package for programming in #OCaml

did you know that rust has support for parameterized modules, just like ocaml: github.com/rust-lang/ru...

Thomas Gazagnaire :: Predicting Satellite Collisions in OCaml Open test data for predicting satellite collisions. I built the full screening pipeline in OCaml, validated it against the answer key, and put a 3D globe in the browser.

Predicting satellite collisions in OCaml!

The screening pipeline matches the TraCSS answer key, and the 3D globe runs in the browser via js_of_ocaml.

GitHub - mjambon/yamlx: Pure-OCaml YAML 1.2 & 1.1 Library Pure-OCaml YAML 1.2 & 1.1 Library. Contribute to mjambon/yamlx development by creating an account on GitHub.

I've created a complete, pure-OCaml YAML library called YAMLx (Yumyulack was too long). It will be suitable for reading config files in your applications as well as for analyzing YAML files used by other projects.

Aiming for a release by the end of this week.

there's a meaningful line to draw between using AI assistance for content creation and using AI to handle commenting and conversation

the latter is counterproductive

the former it's hard to justify doing things the slower way when you only have so many hours in the day

I'm struggling

like... it's tempting to delegate but there's definitely things that's better to at least look at and thoroughly review by myself so that I have the context!

and it took me a while to come to a clear conclusion for the social media automation part:

while the rest of the world is busy getting started with AI, you should be asking yourself the question of where to stop with AI
