#haskell

This is a great, fair look at #haskell and #rust. I often wonder if Haskell/GHC seeming to slow down was due to conservative members of the community, or if Rust's familiar Algol-like aspects led to much faster ecosystem growth. Some of the things called out here like enum name spacing, visibility control, error handling, and testing all seems like addressable issues were it not for the allure of the bike shed. academy.fpblock.com/blog/rust-

FP CompleteReflections on Haskell and RustHaskell vs. Rust: A production-level comparison of two languages.

Netencode: I’m currently building out my project of making a “better” structured language for use in UNIX-pipelines and shell scripting and the like.

It’s human-readable, but supports trivial generation with printf & wc, tagged values (sum types, Result<T>) and embedding arbitrary binaries without escaping due to being length-prefixed.

I think it’s pretty cool!

#introduction mreeow! Hi! My name is Momo! I'm a transfemme, and she/they is my preferred pronouns.

I code as a hobby in #rust and #haskell. I also use #nixos as my main daily driver since last year. :blobfoxcomputer: :nkoLove:

I enjoy creating casual game mods in my free time, including Stardew Valley, #twohoursonelife, and various other games. :apartyblobcat:

I also love playing Cataclysm: Bright Nights (#cbn) and #Stardew Valley. Sometimes, #widelands, and #openttd too, because why not? I like the look and feel of these games. :blobcat3c:

During the weekends, I try to finish reading a fantasy book or two, if I'm feeling reaaaaally cozy :blobcattea: :blobcatmorningtea:

I will be posting about techy stuff that I encounter (mainly #nix and #rust), share my gaming experiences, and rant about random things, ranging from politics to personal life.

And I like to sip a cup of coffee while watching camping videos, too, for some reason. :blabfox:

Feel free to follow me if you want to hear more of my blabbing! :blobcat_mlem: :blobcat_nwn:

PS: I will put distressing or NSFW posts behind CW. :blobcatpeek:

I want to be your next #FediHire ! I've been a programmer since 1985 (as a child), I've been an IT professional since 1995 (pulling wires and swapping cards and configuring MS Windows). I graduated from University of Arkansas Fayetteville with a BS in CS in December of 2003. A full resume is available.

I currently require a 100% remote position. I cannot relocate from Cove, #Arkansas. I would prefer W-2 employment with a base salary of at least 130k USD/yr, plus some sort of retirement offering (401k or similar) and healthcare benefits (HDCP + HSA or similar).

I prefer something where I can be a high-performing individual contributor: reading, writing and improving source text the majority of my day, with some time spent knowledge-sharing with other developers -- learning and teaching. I'd like to work with #Haskell, #Purescript, or #Idris as the primary source language. I've previously delivered value in Haskell, #Javascript, #SQL, #Python, #Scala, #Java, #C, and #C++ among others. I can be productive in almost any language (no PHP, please; I promised myself never again).
