Where was Haskell mentioned?

Sorry but is this a bot comment? (Not replying, asking other readers)
three_burgers··on CVE-2026-28952: Apple macOS 26.5 Kernel Vuln found by Claude
CVE-2026-28952 is about an integer overflow due to lack of input validation. I wonder what makes such vulnerability difficult to discover by traditional SAST tools?
three_burgers··on Closing this as we are no longer pursuing Swift adoption
I’m pretty sure when the Ladybird team said “Swift has strictly better OOP support”, they were not referring to ObjC style message passing, so it’s not even relevant.
three_burgers··on AMD and Sony's PS6 chipset aims to rethink the current graphics pipeline
I think apart from cross-platform woes (if you can call it that), it's also that the technology landscape would shift, two or few years after the console's release:

For PS2, game consoles didn't become the centre of home computing; for PS3, programming against the GPU became the standard of doing real time graphics, not some exotic processor, plus that home entertaining moved on to take other forms (like watching YouTube on an iPad instead of having a media centre set up around the TV); for PS4, people didn't care if the console does social networking; PS5 has been practical, it's just the technology/approach ended up adopted by everyone, so it lost its novelty later on.

I don't think it's a bad thing either. Consoles are a curious breed in today's consumer electronics landscape, it's great that someone's still devoted to doing interesting experiments with it.

It feels like each time SCE makes a new console, it'd always come with some novelty that's supposed to change the field forever, but after two years they'd always end up just another console.
