TIL: Haskell's ByteString is 'pinned' (GC cant move it) so it can be used with FFI. Haskell's Text isn't. Thus, conversions always have to copy.

Conversely, in Rust a String is just a newtype around a Vec<u8> with a smart constructor.

Curious! Maybe there is room for a pinned Text in Haskell?

I'm really pleased with this interview recorded at a recent GOTO conference where I discuss the history, philosophy and future of @sonic-pi.net.

James Lewis was such a pleasure to chat with that this felt much more like a friendly conversation than an actual interview.

fire up your terminal and telnet into `bsky.tel`, the telnet bluesky client, which is now live!

obviously this is really early on, but it should work well for modern machines all the way back to the Commodore 64 and Apple II (pictured here)

plz send bug reports + feedback my way!

Ouch, that looks so painful! Where can this cursed set of functions be found?

Eh, at least there's no !important 😛

You know you've reached the Deep Lore when C/C++ behaviour is documented
not as 'unspecified'
nor as 'undefined'

but as '_may_ be undefined'

I love code formatters, and I love git.

But what I don't love, is Git complaining about conflicts introduced by the formatter.

Is this a necessary pain, or is there a way to make this better? :-)

You know you've done too much Ruby programming when someone says 'MRI scan' and you first assume they are talking about Matz's Ruby Interpreter.

I don't think it looks wanky. Your handwriting is quite beautiful!

Mine, on the other hand... could pass for a Dingbat font, I guess 😬

I am completely befuddled by the behaviour of TypeScript's `any` type. How come un-annotated (or external JS) code defaults to `any` and not to `unknown`?

Aren't mistakes like:
`let x : MyCoolType = JSON.parse(user_input);`
very easily made?

What am I missing? 😅

Even when you're running on the GPU the legacy of LAPACK/BLAS can be seen: Nvidia created cuBLAS, a CUDA library that mimicks "all 152 standard BLAS routines", which is why a lot of code using matrix multiplication could be ported over to GPU-land so quickly 😀

Recently I learned that not only did Fortran '77 already have 80% of the features of modern data science langs&libs, its LAPACK/BLAS libraries were so good+influential that data science langs/libs still use them under the hood.
You are running Fortran today!
