This argument never made sense to me. If someone is willing to wait several years for a PC version of a Sony game, they would never buy a PS5 in the first place. I certainly won't, but got several Sony games on Steam
Most will just wait until emulation is good and pirate the game or not play at all

My mom just dropped by to give me the possibly best birthday cake @haskell.org 😅
A screenshot of a very broken GitHub mobile website
Truly the quality we have come to expect from Microslop
GitHub continues to be broken. Now they apparently removed the button to edit the PR title?
A screenshot of the mobile GitHub website that shows the read me of the nixpkgs repo. It does not fill the width of the screen
Again, more vibecoding on Github, my future projects are all going to codeberg.org
Just found out that a website written in Haskell that I deployed and forgot about over *7 years ago* went down this week, not because it crashed, but because the logs were so long that the server ran out of disk space 🙈
Another tally in the column of "Haskell just works"

Last night's biggest surprise was Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic, led by Casey Hudson, who directed KOTOR (and Anthem). Exciting news for lots of people... but Lucasfilm says the studio was founded this year, which means that 2030 is an *optimistic* guess. Maybe it'll be a PlayStation 7 game
I absolutely loved the old Kotor games, let's see if they can make a decent new one
I have to give my university-issued Laptop back soon, so I am reviving my old personal Laptop that did not see any use in the last three years.
The whole process was:
1. Log into Wi-Fi
2. cd nix-config
3. git pull
4. nixos-rebuild switch --flake .
God I love #NixOS
Don't you love seeing vibe coding out in the wild?
Screenshot of the following Haskell code: data Elem a = MkElem { left :: Elem a, x :: a, right :: Elem a } value :: Elem a -> a value y = y.x mkRing :: Int -> Elem Int mkRing size = start where (start, final) = go final 0 go prev !n = let x = MkElem prev n (if n == size - 1 then start else next) (next, end) = go x (n + 1) in (x, if n == size - 1 then x else end) left :: Int -> Elem a -> Elem a left 0 x = x left n x = left (n - 1) x.left right :: Int -> Elem a -> Elem a right 0 x = x right n x = right (n - 1) x.right ring :: Elem Int ring = right 50 $ mkRing 100
Probably the stupidest way to approach advent of code day 1 in #Haskell, but I just love knot-tying too much
You can have that quite easily though:
environment.etc.myconfig = ./.;
@fasterthanli.me planted the ghostty bug, so today I did finally switch.
Yeah, it's nice 😅
Oh, looks like it has not been updated in a year. Sad
Dhall is quite nice in that regard. I used it for quite a while but then moved away from Kubernetes entirely github.com/dhall-lang/d...
spotify is guilttripping me over cancelling my subscription, are you kidding me
stay classy corpo
Oh there were major changes to run and http as well. Actually dom is the reason why I never finished it, there is an issue in snabbdom that I never came around to fixing
Calling for the separation of Church numerals and application State.
Would not really need to build it from scratch, just need to revive the rewrite PR that I started a few years back 😅
Notes are a convention for documentation originating in GHC: gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/wi...
Basically, instead of breaking up functions with long form documentation comments, you hoist the comment to the top-level and give it a unique name. In the function you only reference the note by name
A screenshot of Neovim with the cursor on a GHC-style note. In a window on the lower screen it shows two file paths with line numbers and short previews of note references
#Haskell language server was just released and it includes my changes to the notes plugin. You can now use "find references" to see all the places that reference a given note
OH: if vaccines caused autism, we’d have way more trains in the United States
i saw someone point out that the selector for time on iphone alarms is actually just a really long list and not truly circular. everything i’ve known is a lie
Today is Bevy's fifth birthday! As always, I've used this as a chance to reflect on the past year and outline my hopes and dreams for the next year of #bevy:

Honestly the soundtrack is the one piece of the game I don't like. It feels very repetitive and as far as I can tell there is only one song on repeat for the main game? So yeah, after 10min I had to mute the music.
We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.
The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

Prompted by Hécate (last year 😅) I finally wrote up a blog post on why you should use the `Generically` newtype instead of DefaultSignatures in @haskell.org
