hugodan··on 8 months of OCaml after 8 years of Haskell in production (2023)
Haskell provides by far the best refactoring experience of all languages I’ve ever used.
hugodan··on Good Software Development Habits
reads like a chatgpt answer
hugodan··on I quit Google to work for myself (2018)
“I quit myself to work for Google” is the most common pattern but not as much spoken about. We can see the side effects of it in posts like these and countless others that come with forced contraptions as ways to justify having quit Google.
hugodan··on Anatomy of an internet argument
He should talk to my family who is alt-right “they are clearly a different species” to see how much he would understand the other side.
hugodan··on Why Haskell?
I'll tell you why, it is simply the best refactoring experience out there. This.
hugodan··on Greppability is an underrated code metric
Try to keep code reference indirections to a tasteful minimum. If a split is needed that’s one more indirection for whoever will be maintaining it in the future. This weight needs to be on the table.

Keeping things referentially transparent helps a lot here.

hugodan··on Portugal brings back tax breaks for foreigners in bid to woo digital nomads
“The country’s Prime Minister Joaquim Miranda Sarmento” he is not the prime minister. That’s Luis Montenegro. Sarmento is the economy/finance minister.

Wasm? Care to provide source for that?
hugodan··on 'Lavender': The AI machine directing Israel's bombing in Gaza
I disagree with you. There is no justification for death.

1) Where do you draw the line? 2) At what number does that one become two? 3) how long do you think until AI is justified to start killing those single digit persons?

4) What if that one person is you? (this is not that hard to imagine, suppose a fictitious near future where everyone that contributed to some extinction event is deemed killable: AI development, global warming, failed to do some recycling, etc).

hugodan··on 'Lavender': The AI machine directing Israel's bombing in Gaza
There is no justification for killing.
hugodan··on Some OpenBSD features that aren't widely known
No^H^HYes
hugodan··on Some OpenBSD features that aren't widely known
one feature I really liked about talk is that you can see other people typing as they type, I miss that in nowadays chat apps, it provided for some very cool interactions with friends
hugodan··on Towards Modern Development of Cloud Applications (2023)
Feels a lot like old school CORBA - quoting from the paper: “Components may be hosted by different OS processes (perhaps across many machines). Component method invocations turn into remote procedure calls where necessary, but remain local procedure calls if the caller and callee component are in the same process.”

What is old is new again
