This article paints Rust and Haskell as very similar languages, but when I saw the title I was thinking about how they are fundamentally different. Rust is technical and exposes/requires you to understand the reality of computation, while Haskell hides it away and lets you program in a system based on lambda-calculus (you don't even have strict order of evaluation!) Interesting to see that they ar

If you trace this all the way back it's been in the Go networking stack since the beginning with the simple commit message of "preliminary network - just Dial for now " [0] by Russ Cox himself. You can see the exact line in the 2008 our repository here [1].As an aside it was interesting to chase the history of this line of code as it was made with a public SetNoDelay function, then with a direct s

Alternatively: What's the current status of Personally Identifying Information and language models?I try to hide my real name whenever possible, out of an abundance of caution. You can still find it if you search carefully, but in today's hostile internet I see this kind of soft pseudonymity as my digital personal space, and expect to have it respected. When playing around in GPT-3 I tried making

Unfortunately not available to compare on https://www.programmingfonts.org/While I'm here: Victor Mono has been my programming font of choice for a while now: https://rubjo.github.io/victor-mono/ Oh, look at that, the Victor Mono homepage has a font comparison slider that allows you to compare it to MonoLisa! MonoLisa advertises that it's wider than other monospace fonts, and you can really see th

Asahi Net | Kyoto, Japan | Full-time software developers | ONSITE VISAAsahi Net, a Japanese ISP based in Tokyo, has started a new R&D lab in Kyoto. We are developing our first product, which would likely be exciting to those interested in distributed systems, functional programming, embedded systems, network programming, Linux kernel hacking, or web development. We are currently hiring for the fol

Hi everyone, author of HLearn here :)This is a bit awkward for me as I've paused the development of HLearn and emphatically do not recommend anyone use it. The main problem is that Haskell (which I otherwise love) has poor support for numerical computing. I've tried developing an alternative standard library to improve the situation (https://github.com/mikeizbicki/subhask), but Haskell's type syst

Wanted to know what are or if there are any coding related podcasts which people are subscribed to. The specific topics I am looking for are- Algorithms/Data Structures - Javascript - Scala Software Engineering Radio [1]. In my opinion this is one of the best software engineering podcasts out there. I find the interview format really effective at really extracting programming wisdom from the exper
