Reminds me of the `accursedUnutterablePerformIO` function, although this is technically part of the public API:
https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring-0.11.2.0/docs/Data-ByteString-Internal.html#v:accursedUnutterablePerformIO https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring-0.11.2.0/docs...
- sterlind 5y agoI think this is the first time I've seen an API describe itself as a "malevolent agent of chaos." > The carcass of many a seasoned Haskell programmer lie strewn at its feet. the docs are genuinely entertaining.
- _0ffh 5y agoWhat's also quite cool that it discourages and additionally impedes usage of the function, because it really is called by a different name. I think it's true name is, ermmm, "nlnPrfrmNT". (I've ultimately decided to stay on the safe side too and not commit into writing the fullness of the dread name.)
